About Minidoka County Fair

The Minidoka County Fair in Rupert takes place on the Snake River Plain, where federal reclamation projects transformed the high desert into some of Idaho's most productive potato and grain fields in the early twentieth century. The fair honors that legacy of hard work and irrigation agriculture in a community where farming is still the backbone of daily life.

What to Expect

Visitors will find livestock shows, 4-H competitions, potato and produce exhibits, carnival rides, and grandstand entertainment celebrating the county's rich agricultural heritage.

Visitor Tips

Rupert sits along US-24 in south-central Idaho — combine the fair with a visit to the nearby Minidoka National Historic Site, which commemorates the Japanese American incarceration camp operated here during World War II.
