About Jackson County Fair
Jackson County is a fast-growing I-85 corridor county between Athens and Atlanta, anchored by Jefferson with its active historic downtown and Braselton with its growing motorsports and resort character, while still maintaining strong agricultural ties through active livestock farming communities.
What to Expect
Livestock competitions, 4-H and FFA exhibits, carnival midway, live entertainment, and fair food serving the increasingly suburban but still farm-rooted communities of Jackson County.
Visitor Tips
Jefferson is about 55 miles northeast of Atlanta and 20 miles north of Athens. I-85 makes it accessible from both cities — an easy drive for families from either metro area.
