About Jackson County Fair

The Jackson County Fair in Pascagoula is an October fair on the eastern Mississippi Gulf Coast, celebrating the maritime, industrial, and Gulf Coast heritage of a county dominated by Ingalls Shipbuilding — one of the largest shipbuilders in the United States — and the beautiful Pascagoula River estuary, one of the least-disturbed river systems in the Gulf South.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors featuring Gulf Coast seafood, and a fair serving the industrial and coastal communities of the eastern Mississippi Gulf Coast.

Visitor Tips

Pascagoula is Mississippi's industrial coastal city — Ingalls Shipbuilding (builder of Navy destroyers and amphibious ships), the Pascagoula River Audubon Center (protecting one of the Gulf Coast's most ecologically important river systems), and the Gulf Islands National Seashore offshore define the character of this eastern Gulf Coast community.
