About Jefferson County Fair

The Jefferson County Fair in Fayette is an August fair in the loess bluffs of southwest Mississippi, celebrating the cotton, antebellum, and civil rights heritage of a county near Natchez whose deep history of cotton plantation agriculture and African American majority population has made it a significant site in both antebellum and civil rights history.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a small community fair in the forested loess bluffs and hardwood bottomland country of southwest Mississippi.

Visitor Tips

Fayette is the Jefferson County seat — the county's proximity to the Natchez country and the Grand Gulf area and the surrounding loess bluffs and hardwood forest country of the lower Mississippi River valley uplands preserve the antebellum landscape heritage of southwest Mississippi.
