Garfield County Fair Overview

Every year, Jordan hosts the Garfield County Fair, which celebrates one of America's most remote and isolated counties — Jordan was once dubbed "the loneliest town in America," and the county's cattle ranching families are spread across a vast badlands and prairie landscape where the Missouri Breaks and the Hell Creek Formation yield some of the world's finest dinosaur fossils.

Highlights

Expect a small fair with livestock exhibits, 4-H competitions, rodeo events, and the authentic frontier spirit of a county where the annual fair is one of the year's most important community events.

Good to Know

Hell Creek State Park near Jordan preserves the formation where the most important Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops specimens were discovered. The Fort Peck Lake shoreline and the Missouri Breaks National Monument offer spectacular scenery in one of the most remote and least-visited regions in the lower 48 states.
