Elizabethtown Fair

The Elizabethtown Fair serves as a premier showcase for Lancaster County agriculture, embodying the spirit of a “Small Town, Large Community.” Held each August, this tradition is one of Pennsylvania’s 108 state fairs, offering a vibrant mix of animal, agricultural, and commercial exhibits.

Families can enjoy a free petting zoo, free nightly entertainment, and contests for all ages. Beyond the carnival rides and local food favorites, the fair acts as a vital fundraiser for many civic organizations and church groups. It’s a true community hub where local businesses promote themselves while celebrating the region’s deep farming roots.
