About Keweenaw County Fair

The Keweenaw County Fair in Eagle River celebrates Michigan's northernmost county — the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula that juts into Lake Superior, where the world's richest copper deposits once made this the center of American copper mining, and where small farming, commercial fishing, and the growing tourism economy support a remote Upper Peninsula community.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors, mining heritage exhibits, and the tight-knit community spirit of one of Michigan's most remote and historically significant counties.

Visitor Tips

Eagle River is the tiny county seat on Lake Superior. Keweenaw National Historical Park preserves the extraordinary legacy of the world's first large-scale copper mining operation. The Keweenaw's Lake Superior shoreline, the Brockway Mountain Drive, and Fort Wilkins State Park define one of the Upper Peninsula's most spectacular destinations.
