Nicollet County Fair and Fairgrounds

Creating memories for 155 years

The Nicollet County Fair has been creating memories since 1871. Children laughing, the aroma of fair food, and fun events and shows…the Nicollet County Fair is a feel-good family event. The friendliness of the Nicollet County Fair and the fairgrounds sets it apart from other events.

The Nicollet County Fair is a reflection of Nicollet County and its residents. We are extremely proud of our fair and the great residents who showcase their talents at fair time and throughout the year.
