About Madison County Fair
The Madison County Fair in Fredericktown celebrates an eastern Ozarks mining county where lead, silver, and barite mining shaped communities in the St. Francois Mountains foothills — the county's timber, cattle, and small farm operations maintain agricultural traditions alongside its long mining heritage.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and the Ozark community spirit of a county where mining and farming have long coexisted in the hills between the St. Francois Mountains and the Mississippi River lowlands.
Visitor Tips
Fredericktown is the county seat near the eastern Ozarks. The county's mining heritage is visible in its geology — the St. Francois Mountains' ancient igneous rocks contain significant mineral deposits. Millstream Gardens Conservation Area offers float fishing and swimming in a scenic shut-ins environment.
