About York County Fair

The York County Fair in Alfred celebrates Maine's southernmost and most visited county — York County's beaches at Old Orchard Beach, Ogunquit, and York draw millions of summer visitors, and the county's agricultural communities in the Saco and Mousam river valleys maintain their farming traditions behind the beach strip.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors with Maine classics, and a well-organized fair drawing from the county's year-round residents and farming families.

Visitor Tips

Alfred is the quiet county seat behind the coastal resort strip. The Maine Diner in Wells, the Ogunquit Museum of American Art, and Kennebunkport (summer home of the Bush family) reflect the county's blend of working communities and resort destinations. Kittery's outlet malls are the gateway to Maine from the south.
