The Fair

Tryon's McPherson County Fair celebrates Nebraska's second-least populous county — a Nebraska Sandhills county with fewer than 500 residents where cattle ranching is virtually the only occupation and the county seat of Tryon is one of the smallest county seats in the United States.

What You'll Find There

Expect a very small Sandhills fair with livestock exhibits, 4-H competitions, and the pioneering community spirit of one of the Great Plains' most remote counties.

Local Tips

Tryon is accessible via Nebraska Highway 92. McPherson County's Sandhills landscape is among the most pristine in Nebraska, with native grass ranches spanning thousands of acres and wildlife including sandhill cranes, bald eagles, and mule deer.
