About Shelby County Fair

The Shelby County Fair in Columbiana is an August fair in the fastest-growing county in Alabama, celebrating the timber, iron, and suburban heritage of a county that has transformed from a rural Appalachian foothills community into one of the South's most dynamic suburban corridors south of Birmingham.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a fair serving the rapidly growing suburban communities of the greater Birmingham metro and the rural agricultural townships of Shelby County.

Visitor Tips

Columbiana is the Shelby County seat — the Oak Mountain State Park (Alabama's largest state park, with mountain biking, hiking, and swimming in the Birmingham metro), the Pelham commercial corridor, and the Shelby County Airport define the character of Alabama's most economically dynamic suburban county.
