About Jefferson County Fair
Jefferson County's seat of Louisville served as Georgia's third capital city from 1796 to 1807 (after Savannah and Augusta), and the old marketplace structure in downtown Louisville — still standing — is one of the oldest surviving public market buildings in the American South, reflecting a county of deep historical significance.
What to Expect
Livestock and agricultural shows, 4-H exhibits, carnival rides, community entertainment, and fair food celebrating Jefferson County's agricultural heritage and its place as one of Georgia's early political capitals.
Visitor Tips
Louisville is the Jefferson County seat on US-1 in east-central Georgia. The historic market house downtown is one of the South's most authentic antebellum commercial structures — visit before or after the fair.
