About Bear Lake County Fair

The Bear Lake County Fair in Paris sits in the high valley near the Idaho-Utah border, where the stunning turquoise waters of Bear Lake — nicknamed the Caribbean of the Rockies — draw summer visitors to one of Idaho's most scenic corners. The fair serves a tight-knit farming and ranching community that has gathered here for generations amid the valley's hay meadows and raspberry fields.

What to Expect

Expect 4-H livestock competitions, open-class exhibits, local produce displays, and small-town fair entertainment that reflects the valley's pioneer heritage and strong community bonds.

Visitor Tips

Bear Lake is famous for its raspberries — pick up raspberry shakes or fresh berries at roadside stands throughout Paris and Montpelier while you're in the area for the fair.
