About Issaquena County Fair

The Issaquena County Fair in Mayersville is an August fair in the most remote county in Mississippi, celebrating the cattle and cotton heritage of the state's least populated county — a vast bottomland wilderness of oxbow lakes, cypress swamps, and cotton fields between the Mississippi River and the Yazoo River in the western Delta.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a small community fair in Mississippi's most sparsely populated county on the edge of the Mississippi River floodplain.

Visitor Tips

Mayersville is the Issaquena County seat — the county's extraordinary concentration of oxbow lakes, cypress-tupelo swamps, and Mississippi River bottomland hardwood forests make Issaquena County one of the premier wildlife areas in the South, with exceptional hunting and fishing in an otherwise extremely remote corner of the Delta.
