So much work happens behind the scenes that most people never see—preparing the grounds, setting everything up, keeping things running throughout the fair, and then helping get everything cleaned up afterward.

We truly appreciate the time, hard work, and dedication you all put in to make the Fluvanna County Fair happen. We couldn’t do it without you!

Thank you to:
Aaron Spitzer
Brendan Krett
Eric Armentrout

Chris Morgan
Herman Franklin

From all of us on the Fair Board—thank you for everything you do for our community!

WE ARE OPEN!!!!!!!

We are so sorry for the weather interruption and for everyone who came out ready to enjoy the fair. We know how much planning goes into making a night at the fair special, and we hate that the weather had other plans.

There will be NO refunds on carnival rides, but we are planning to reopen at 7:30 PM!

We will NOT charge admission for re-entry tonight. So if you were already here, come on back and enjoy the rest of the evening with us!

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and support. We’re hoping Mother Nature gives us a break and lets us finish the night the way it was meant to be!
