The 2022 Kane County Fair Returns In August

Aug. 6–13 in Orderville, Utah.

Kane County has a rich history of pioneering spirit, industry, agriculture, farming, ranching, entrepreneurship, food, and fun. For 68 years the fair has been a focal point for families. Youth throughout the years have found lasting memories, opportunities for leadership, and simple fun traditions to pass on to the next generation. It was around 1946 when the Long Valley Sale began. There were many kids wanting to show and sell their animals but in order for them to do that, they had to take them to Cedar City. Instead of traveling to Cedar the residences around Long Valley decided to start their own sale and show.

This year’s fair has over 20 events for patrons to enjoy. Events are held at a variety of locations. A list of locations can be found at TheKaneCountyFair.com.

This year’s fair features a bucking bull for attendees to try and ride, concessions and vendors, a family dance, live entertainment, and fireworks. Patrons can also enjoy inflatables, a parade, and a kid zone, a talent show, and a performance by Thrillbilly Deluxe.

Attendees can enter livestock, horticulture, and floriculture in the county fair competition or bring their babies to enter in the baby contest.

Other contest opportunities include dummy roping, a horse show, log saw, long-range rifle shoot and three-gun shoot, and Dutch oven cooking. There will also be a 4-H fair, home arts display, a crafts competition, and a fine arts competition.

More information on the Kane County Fair is available at TheKaneCountyFair.com. Vendors can email Sherri Crofts: 17plattshe@washk12.org.
