About Tunica County Fair

Held each August in Tunica, Tunica County Fair celebrates the cotton and gaming heritage of a county that was transformed in the 1990s from one of the poorest places in America to a major casino resort destination, with dozens of casinos lining the levee road that drew millions of gamblers from across the Mid-South.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair in the flat cotton and soybean country of Tunica County alongside the Mississippi River.

Visitor Tips

Tunica is the "Casino Capital of the South" — the Tunica Resort Area along the Mississippi River levee offers extensive casino gaming, the Delta Blues Museum in nearby Clarksdale, and the extraordinary flat Delta landscape stretching to the horizon in every direction define this northwest corner of Mississippi.
