About Barnstable County Fair

The Barnstable County Fair in Falmouth celebrates Cape Cod's agricultural heritage — one of America's oldest continuously operating fairs (since 1844), it draws visitors from across southeastern New England to the fairgrounds in East Falmouth each July, celebrating a county better known for its beaches and seafood than for its farming.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, live entertainment, local seafood vendors, cranberry exhibits, and a well-organized fair drawing from the Cape Cod community and summer visitors.

Visitor Tips

The Barnstable County Fairgrounds are in East Falmouth on Cape Cod. The Cape Cod National Seashore, Provincetown's art colony, and the Heritage Museums & Gardens at Sandwich reflect a county of extraordinary natural and cultural richness.
