About Sioux County Fair

The Sioux County Fair in Harrison celebrates Nebraska's most remote county — the northwestern corner where the High Plains meet the White River badlands and the Wyoming border, and where cattle ranching on short-grass prairie sustains a tiny community that includes Agate Fossil Beds National Monument in its boundaries.

What to Expect

Expect a small fair with livestock exhibits, 4-H competitions, rodeo events, and the authentic pioneering spirit of one of the most isolated counties in the Great Plains.

Visitor Tips

Harrison sits in the extreme northwestern Nebraska Panhandle. Agate Fossil Beds National Monument preserves extraordinary Miocene-era mammal fossils — rhinos, giant pigs, and bear-dogs that roamed the plains 20 million years ago. The Fort Robinson State Park and the surrounding High Plains offer exceptional wildlife viewing and hiking.
