ABOUT THE FAIR
Proudly supporting Tennessee agriculture
The Henry County Fair has been a late summer tradition in Paris, TN for a long time, way before I ever started showing steers. It is a nine day celebration of agriculture, community, and county pride at the Henry County Fairgrounds.
Along with the Junior Livestock shows, the fair has pageants, exhibit halls for art, baking, canning, photography, crafts, and more, plus contests, tractor pulls, live music, food trucks, and a vendor market. All of it is free to attend, with free parking every day.
The Henry County Fair Board and UT Extension run the fair together, and the Junior Fair Board, made up of local kids, helps organize events for exhibitors like me.
