About Norfolk County Fair

The Norfolk County Fair in Dedham celebrates the suburban Boston county that includes Quincy (birthplace of two presidents — John Adams and John Quincy Adams), Brookline (birthplace of JFK), and the South Shore communities, where the county's agricultural heritage in the Charles River valley and the Blue Hills is honored alongside its dense suburban character.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, local food vendors, carnival rides, and a fair drawing from the greater Norfolk County suburban community.

Visitor Tips

Quincy's Adams National Historical Park preserves the birthplaces and home of the Adams presidential family. Dedham's historic courthouse (site of the Sacco-Vanzetti trial) and the Blue Hills Reservation's Great Blue Hill — with its weather observatory — are county landmarks.
