About Routt County Fair

The Routt County Fair in Steamboat Springs celebrates the "Ski Town, USA" capital of Cowboys and moguls — Steamboat Springs' unique combination of genuine ranching heritage and world-class skiing (Olympic development center), natural hot springs, and the Yampa River valley's cattle ranching define a Colorado mountain county of distinctive Western character.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, cattle and hay exhibits, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a fair drawing from both the ranching community and the resort economy of the Yampa Valley.

Visitor Tips

Steamboat Springs has produced more Winter Olympians than any other town in America — over 90 athletes have gone from Steamboat to the Olympics. The natural Strawberry Park Hot Springs and the Steamboat Ski Resort's Champagne Powder define the county's resort character. The Yampa River's July Yampa River Core Trail is excellent for cycling and running.
