Did you know the North Idaho State Fair and Kootenai County Fairgrounds is completely self sustaining and opperates on $0 county tax dollars?

That means the Fairgrounds relies on the revenue it generates through the annual Fair, year-round events, facility rentals, sponsorships, vendor partnerships, ticket sales, concessions, RV Park use, and community support.

Every event booked, vendor space filled, sponsorship secured, and guest who shows up, helps keep the Kootenai County Fairgrounds moving forward.

The Fairgrounds is more than 10 days of Fair fun. It is a year-round gathering place for livestock shows, rodeos, markets, meetings, weddings, concerts, private rentals, community events, and more.

So when you support the Fairgrounds, you are helping support a place that serves North Idaho all year long.

Fun is in the mix, but so is hard work, smart planning, and a whole lot of community support.
