About Juneau City and Borough Fair
The Juneau City and Borough Fair in Juneau celebrates Alaska's capital — the only US state capital not accessible by road, Juneau clings to a steep mountainside between the Gastineau Channel and the towering Juneau Icefield, and the city's remarkable fishing heritage, the Mendenhall Glacier's dramatic accessibility (15 minutes from downtown), and the Alaska State Legislature's annual session define a government and outdoor recreation city of distinctive character.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, local food vendors with Alaskan seafood, live entertainment, community exhibits, Alaska Native cultural displays, and a fair drawing from Southeast Alaska's capital city.
Visitor Tips
The Mendenhall Glacier's visitor center provides views of a 13-mile-long glacier calving into a glacial lake just 13 miles from downtown. The Alaska State Capitol building, the Alaska State Museum, and the historic South Franklin Street district define a capital city of considerable cultural richness. Whale watching in Stephens Passage is world-class.
