About Suffolk County Fair

The Suffolk County Fair in Boston celebrates Massachusetts' capital county — Boston is the Hub of the Universe, home to Faneuil Hall, the Freedom Trail, and one of the world's greatest concentrations of universities, and the county's agricultural heritage (its few remaining community gardens and the Essex Agricultural School's traditions) is honored at a fair in America's most historic city.

What to Expect

Expect 4-H competitions, local food vendors highlighting Boston's extraordinary restaurant scene, community exhibits, and a fair drawing from Boston's diverse and dynamic urban population.

Visitor Tips

Boston's Freedom Trail, Fenway Park, the Museum of Fine Arts, and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum define a city of extraordinary cultural wealth. The Boston Marathon, St. Patrick's Day celebrations in South Boston, and the Boston Symphony's Symphony Hall reflect a city with deeply held civic traditions.
