About Kootenai County Fair

The Kootenai County Fair in Coeur d'Alene celebrates northern Idaho's most rapidly growing county — the "Lake City" of Coeur d'Alene has become one of the Pacific Northwest's most desirable destinations for its extraordinary lake, mountain scenery, and recreation economy, and the county's agricultural communities, timber heritage, and Silver Valley mining legacy come together at a major Northern Idaho fair. First held in 1922, it's carried on as an Idaho agricultural tradition for well over a hundred years.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, live entertainment, local food vendors, and a large, well-organized fair drawing from the greater Coeur d'Alene metropolitan area.

Visitor Tips

Coeur d'Alene Lake's floating boardwalk, the Coeur d'Alene Resort's floating golf green, and the North Idaho Centennial Trail reflect a resort city of considerable sophistication. The Silver Valley's Bunker Hill mining Superfund site and the Wallace silver mining heritage provide industrial counterpoint.
