About Clay County Fair

The Clay County Fair in West Point is an August fair in the prairie country of northeast Mississippi, celebrating the cattle, cotton, and Black Belt prairie heritage of a county defined by the fertile Blackland Prairie soils — the northernmost extension of the "Black Belt" agricultural zone that stretches across the Deep South.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair in the rich Blackland Prairie cotton and cattle country of the upper Tombigbee valley.

Visitor Tips

West Point is the Clay County seat on the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway — the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway Aberdeen-West Point-Columbus corridor and the Black Belt Prairie soils that made this region one of the most productive cotton districts in the antebellum South define Clay County.
