About Macon County Fair

The Macon County Fair in Tuskegee is a September fair in the Black Belt of east-central Alabama, celebrating the agricultural, scientific, and military heritage of a county defined by Tuskegee University — founded by Booker T. Washington in 1881 — and the Tuskegee Airmen, the pioneering Black fighter pilots of World War II.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a fair deeply connected to the agricultural science and community development traditions of Tuskegee University's College of Agriculture.

Visitor Tips

Tuskegee is one of America's most significant small cities — Tuskegee University (a National Historic Site), the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site at Moton Field, the George Washington Carver Museum (documenting Carver's revolutionary agricultural research), and the Booker T. Washington birthplace marker make Tuskegee an essential American cultural destination.
