What to Know

The Blaine County Fair in Brewster celebrates Nebraska's least populous county — Blaine County's few hundred residents are among the most dispersed in the nation, with cattle ranching families maintaining homesteads across a vast Sandhills landscape where pronghorn antelope outnumber people.

Before You Go

Brewster is accessible via Nebraska Highway 2, the Sandhills Journey Scenic Byway. The surrounding Sandhills provide exceptional wildlife viewing, wetlands that support millions of migratory birds, and cattle ranching landscapes little changed from the late 19th century.

On the Midway

Expect a very small Sandhills fair with livestock exhibits, 4-H competitions, and the authentic pioneering spirit of one of America's most remote and sparsely settled counties.
