About Wayne County Fair

The Wayne County Fair in Waynesboro is an August fair in the Piney Woods of southeast Mississippi, celebrating the timber, cattle, and poultry heritage of a county in the Chickasawhay River valley where the longleaf pine forests of the Gulf coastal plain meet the rolling red clay hills of the Mississippi interior.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair in the Piney Woods timber and cattle country of the Chickasawhay River watershed.

Visitor Tips

Waynesboro is the Wayne County seat — the Chickasawhay River (one of Mississippi's most scenic float rivers) and the surrounding De Soto National Forest and Piney Woods timber country make Wayne County an outstanding southeast Mississippi outdoor recreation destination.
