About Shannon County Fair
The Shannon County Fair in Eminence celebrates the heart of Missouri's Ozark National Scenic Riverways — the Current and Jacks Fork rivers converge near Eminence, creating some of the clearest, coldest, and most beautiful spring-fed rivers in the eastern United States, and the county's small cattle and farm operations sustain a community defined by the river culture.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and the deeply Ozark community spirit of a county where the rivers are the center of life and float fishing is a multigenerational tradition.
Visitor Tips
Eminence is the gateway to Missouri's most spectacular float fishing country. The Current River, Jacks Fork, and the numerous springs that feed them — including Round Spring and Blue Spring — are among Missouri's greatest natural treasures. The Ozark National Scenic Riverways is the primary federal recreation area in Missouri.
