About Lincoln County Fair
The Lincoln County Fair in Pioche celebrates a southeastern Nevada county where the silver mining town of Pioche — once called "the wickedest city in the West" — and the remote valleys of the Basin and Range support cattle ranching and a small community in one of Nevada's most historically colorful and geographically isolated counties. The area's broader history includes notable events and landmarks dating to 1872.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, rodeo events, and the small-county community spirit of a remote southeastern Nevada ranching county where the annual fair is one of the year's most important community events.
Visitor Tips
Pioche's 1872 Lincoln County Courthouse — the "Million Dollar Courthouse" that cost far more than planned — and the historic Boot Hill cemetery reflect the county's wild mining heritage. Cathedral Gorge State Park's dramatic eroded clay formations are one of Nevada's most striking geological attractions.
