About Oregon County Fair

The Oregon County Fair in Alton celebrates Missouri's southernmost county bordering Arkansas, where the Eleven Point River — one of only eight rivers designated Wild and Scenic in the Midwest — flows through one of the state's most remote and beautiful Ozark counties, and where small cattle and farm operations sustain communities far from Missouri's population centers.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and the deeply Ozark community spirit of one of Missouri's most remote and least-visited counties.

Visitor Tips

Alton is the county seat near the Arkansas border. The Eleven Point National Scenic River flows through Oregon County with excellent float fishing for smallmouth bass and trout. The Mark Twain National Forest covers most of the county, making it one of Missouri's most forested and remote landscapes.
