Edit: Carnival ride policy is to run rides as long as safety is not compromised! Currently (12pm), 3/4 of rides are running!

Rain or shine, the Fair will go on!🌦️ A few scattered showers won’t stop the fun. Today’s schedule is still on as planned, as long as guest, animal, and staff safety aren’t at risk.

Explore indoor shopping vendors, visit the livestock barns FULL of FFA animals, and don’t miss the Craft Show happening all day in the Heartland Events Center.

Bring your ponchos and umbrellas — they’re welcome all around the Fair, except no umbrellas at TD Landing during concerts. And don’t forget, our many trams are covered, and are a great way to move across the grounds!

Tonight’s concert is still planned for an outdoor show, we’ll see you there!e ridesas

We fill the bleachers on Friday nights for football. We fill the bleachers on cold winter nights for basketball. We will travel miles and miles to support our youth in volleyball, baseball, softball, gymnastics, and dance.
Our Fair Families would like to invite you to fill the bleachers on a warm summer day in the coming fair week and watch the kids who practice with a 1200 pound steer that doesn't always want to walk, a 140 pound lamb that doesn't want to get on the stand for the 100th time, a 280 pound hog that just wants to stay in a cool barn, or a goat that hates the chain.
Come check out the Exhibit Hall for our non-livestock exhibitors who toiled and dreamed all summer to put their heart and dedication into their projects.
Lets fill the bleachers, barns and buildings to show these kids that their hard work doesn't go unnoticed and because of them, the future of the agriculture and leadership of our world is in good hands.

The Collier Fair is back, and this year, it's all about dinosaurs. To celebrate 49 years, the fair held its ceremonial ribbon cutting at the Collier Fairgrounds.
