About Sussex County Fair
The Sussex County Fair in Georgetown celebrates Delaware's largest and most agricultural county — the Delmarva Peninsula's Sussex County is one of the nation's leading broiler chicken producers and also grows significant corn, soybeans, and vegetables on the flat coastal plain soils west of the Delaware beaches.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, poultry and broiler exhibits, corn and vegetable displays, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a well-organized fair reflecting the agricultural importance of Delaware's southernmost county.
Visitor Tips
Georgetown is the county seat of Delaware's largest county by area. The Delaware beaches — Rehoboth, Dewey, Bethany, and Fenwick Island — are the county's economic driver in summer, while the inland chicken farms and croplands represent the agricultural reality that predates the resort economy.
