About White County Fair
The White County Fair in Searcy is a mid-September tradition in one of the fastest-growing counties in Arkansas, where the fertile Little Red River valley supports a mix of row crops and a booming suburban community south of the Ozark foothills. Searcy is home to Harding University, and the fair draws from both the county's longtime farm families and its newer residents.
What to Expect
Livestock and agricultural competitions, 4-H and FFA exhibits, carnival rides and midway games, fair food, and community entertainment. The six-day fair reflects the blend of deep rural roots and modern growth that characterizes White County today.
Visitor Tips
Searcy is about 50 miles northeast of Little Rock on US-67, an easy drive from the capital region. Harding University gives the town a strong community presence — the area has good dining and lodging options for fair-goers traveling from out of county.
