About Conejos County Fair

The Conejos County Fair in Conejos celebrates the oldest county seat in Colorado — Conejos is the site of Colorado's first Catholic church (Our Lady of Guadalupe, 1857) and the oldest Colorado county, and the San Luis Valley's Hispanic farming heritage, Conejos River's trout fishery, and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains define a county of deep cultural and religious significance.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, San Luis Valley potato and alfalfa exhibits, Hispanic cultural food vendors, and a fair honoring the deep New Mexican Spanish colonial heritage of the oldest settled county in Colorado.

Visitor Tips

Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in Conejos — Colorado's oldest church, built in 1857 — remains an active parish and pilgrimage site. The Conejos River's gold-medal trout water and the South Fork of the Rio Grande provide world-class fly fishing. The Los Caminos Antiguos Scenic Byway passes through the county.
