🎪🚨 WAKE UP, BITTERROOT VALLEY… IT’S FAIR DAY! 🚨🎪

After all that waiting, planning, counting down, and pretending you weren’t already thinking about fair food… THE RAVALLI COUNTY FAIR IS OFFICIALLY HERE! 🤠🎉

And we’re wasting NO time getting this party started!

🎺 10:00 AM — PARADE IN DOWNTOWN HAMILTON
Start your day with a bird’s-eye view of one of our favorite local traditions! Grab a spot, wave at your neighbors, and enjoy the parade. 👋🎉

🥪 11:00 AM–2:00 PM — LUNCH AT THE FAIR
Grab your coworkers, friends, family, or that one person who mysteriously appears whenever food is involved. 😂🌭🍔

Come enjoy lunch at the fairgrounds and soak up those fresh-air, fair-day vibes!

🛍️ MARKET & INFO VENDORS — COME WANDER!
After lunch, take a stroll through the market and check out all of our amazing vendors and organizations. You never know what you’ll find around the next corner!

📖 DON’T FORGET YOUR FAIR BOOK!
Grab a fair book and keep it handy so you know WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, AND WHO is happening all week long.
There’s rodeo.
There’s music.
There’s animals.
There’s exhibits.
There’s food.
There’s rides.
There’s shopping.
There’s probably something you forgot you wanted to do. 😂

🎉 DAY 1 STARTS NOW!

So grab your crew, grab your fair book, grab your appetite, and COME ON DOWN!

🚨🎪 ONE. MORE. SLEEP. PEOPLE! 🎪🚨

That’s right, Bitterroot Valley… THE RAVALLI COUNTY FAIR STARTS TOMORROW! 🤠🎉

At this point, your schedule should probably be less of a “plan” and more of a strategic attack on the fairgrounds. 😂

Have you figured out where you’re headed first?

🍔 Food: Obviously. Priorities.
🎢 Rides: Hold onto your funnel cake!
🐮 Barns: Go admire the animals—and try not to compare their haircuts to yours. 😂
🎶 Entertainment: Find a seat and let the good times roll.
🐎 Rodeo: Yeehaw is not optional.
🎪 Exhibits: Prepare to be impressed by what your neighbors can bake, grow, build, sew, paint, and create!

And don’t forget to leave a little room in your schedule for the things you didn’t plan on doing. Those are usually the things that end up being the most fun!

So charge your phone.
Grab your friends.
Find your fair shoes.
Stretch your stomach for fair food. 😂🌭
And maybe take a nap… because tomorrow is going to be a BIG day!

🔥 ONE MORE DAY, BITTERROOT VALLEY! 🔥

Let’s make this the best, funniest, loudest, most delicious fair yet! 🤠🎡🎉

WHO’S READY?! 👇👇👇

🚗💨 FREE PARKING AT THE RAVALLI COUNTY FAIR! 🎪🎡

Yep. You read that right. FREE. PARKING. 🅿️🙌
Because we already know you’re spending enough on corn dogs and fair snacks. 😂🌭🍦

We’ll have nonprofits monitoring both the North and South parking lots, so please follow their direction and help us keep things moving.

♿ Limited handicap parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please leave these spaces for those who truly need them.

🅿️ A Few Parking Tips From Your Friendly Fairgrounds Crew:
Park like a pro. Or a pirate. 🏴‍☠️ Just park legally.
Follow the parking attendants’ directions. They’re not just standing there looking festive. 😂
Please DO NOT park in front of No Parking signs. They’re not suggestions. 😉
Keep emergency lanes, driveways, and access areas clear.
And please don’t create your own parking space because “there was room.” We promise… there wasn’t. 😂
🚨 IMPORTANT: If you block an emergency lane, driveway, or park where you shouldn’t, your vehicle may be towed.

Nobody wants their fair memories to include a tow truck bill. 🚗➡️🚓➡️💸😭

So be smart, be courteous, follow the signs, and let our parking folks help you get settled.

FREE PARKING + FAIR FUN = A PRETTY GOOD DEAL! 🤠🎪

Now go find yourself a spot—and please, for the love of funnel cake, park like you passed your driver’s test. 😂🍰

📍 Exhibit Building at the Ravalli County Fairgrounds

🍰 Baked goods
🎨 Art & crafts
🥫 Canning
📸 Photography

Save those beautiful blooms for MONDAY from 3:00–7:00 PM at the Exhibit Building. 🌻🌹🌷

So if your paperwork is already in, load up the goodies and bring ’em to the fair! 🎪

And remember: No paperwork = no entry today. We’d hate for you to show up with your prize-winning masterpiece only to have us break the bad news. 😬😂

Let’s get those exhibits in and make this year’s fair one to remember! ❤️🏆
