About Oconee County Fair
Oconee County is the rapidly growing suburban county immediately west of Athens-Clarke County, centered on the charming small town of Watkinsville with its historic Eagle Tavern and courthouse square, maintaining a strong agricultural fair tradition amid the growth pressure of the Athens metropolitan area.
What to Expect
Livestock and agricultural shows, 4-H and FFA exhibits, carnival rides, community entertainment, and fair food serving Oconee County's mix of farming families and growing university-area suburban communities.
Visitor Tips
Watkinsville is the Oconee County seat just minutes from Athens and the University of Georgia. The historic Eagle Tavern on the courthouse square is one of Georgia's oldest surviving taverns — a worthwhile stop alongside the fair.
