The 2025 Washington County Fair is back for another year of one of the most celebrated and established traditions in Northwest Arkansas. Don't miss the largest county fair in Arkansas when it lands in Fayetteville from Tuesday, August 19 through Saturday, August 23!

Originally founded in 1857, this family-friendly event has a little something for everyone, from bull riding to the Miss Washington County Fair pageant! Thrill seekers will have their pick of the largest selection of action-packed rides around, and those that sit out can enjoy the art displays, free petting zoo and students' 4-H or FFA-sponsored livestock projects. All ages will enjoy walking the fairgrounds, people-watching, riding the rides, and celebrating the end of summer with all the classic fair food!

Admission to the Washington County Fair for the 2025 season is $5.00 cash / $7.50 card per person (ages 6+), with children 5 and under admitted for free.
