About Smith County Fair
The Smith County Fair in Raleigh is an August fair in the Piney Woods of south-central Mississippi, celebrating the cattle, timber, and oil heritage of a county in the Strong River valley where the longleaf pine forests and sandy soils of the Piney Woods preserve a distinctive Gulf coastal plain landscape.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a small community fair in the longleaf pine and hardwood forest country of Smith County.
Visitor Tips
Raleigh is the Smith County seat — the Strong River (one of Mississippi's most scenic river float trips) and the surrounding Bienville National Forest and Piney Woods timber country make Smith County an outstanding destination for outdoor recreation in the Mississippi interior.
