Please note: No further pre-registration forms are being accepted. Anyone who would still like to enter something should just bring their item on the specific entry day for that item.

WELCOME to the
Olmsted County Fair!

WELCOME to the Olmsted County Fair. The 4th hockey arena is under construction on the fairgrounds.

The new building is in the SE corner of the fairgrounds and will connect with Graham Arenas 1, 2 and 3. The construction has limited our parking and closed some roads and some entrances into the Graham buildings. Please click here to view the new map for details!

Note all the Graham Arenas are now numbered instead of named. Graham West is now Graham Arena 1; Graham East is now Graham Arena 2; and Graham North is now Graham Arena 3. Graham Arena 4 is not yet open for our use. The Hobby Building no longer exists. Hobbies will exhibit in Graham Arena 2. The wine exhibits and the woodcarvers will be in the north side of the 4-H Building. The Olmsted County Fair Board will do all we can to make things as easy as possible for our fairgoers, exhibitors and vendors.
