About Jackson County Fair

The Jackson County Fair in Newport is an August fair in the White River valley of northeast Arkansas, celebrating the cotton, soybeans, and White River heritage of a county where the White River emerges from the Ozark highlands into the Delta lowlands and the bottomland hardwood forests and agricultural fields of the lower river valley begin.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair in the White River valley agricultural country of Jackson County.

Visitor Tips

Newport is the Jackson County seat on the White River — the White River corridor through Jackson County is an important agricultural and fishery resource, and the surrounding Delta cotton and soybean fields define the flat lowland character of this northeast Arkansas river county.
