About Cleburne County Fair

The Cleburne County Fair in Heflin is an August fair in the Appalachian foothills of east Alabama, celebrating the timber, cattle, and gold heritage of a county in the Talladega Mountains where gold was mined in the 1830s in America's first major gold rush before the discoveries in California.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair in the rolling Appalachian hill country of Cleburne County.

Visitor Tips

Heflin is the Cleburne County seat — Cleburne County was part of America's first gold rush (beginning with the Arbacoochee gold fields in the 1830s), and the Talladega National Forest covers much of the county's high ridge country between the Coosa valley and the Georgia border.
