About San Juan County Fair

The San Juan County Fair in Aztec celebrates northwestern New Mexico's Four Corners country — the county contains Chaco Culture National Historical Park (a UNESCO World Heritage Site and center of the ancient Pueblo civilization), Navajo Lake, and the oil and gas fields of the San Juan Basin, alongside apple orchards and alfalfa farms in the Animas River valley.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, apple exhibits, rodeo events, local food vendors, and a well-organized fair drawing from the Farmington-Aztec community and the county's diverse Native and agricultural families.

Visitor Tips

Aztec Ruins National Monument and Chaco Culture National Historical Park are world-class archaeological sites. The Salmon Ruins near Bloomfield preserve a 12th-century Chacoan great house, and Navajo Lake State Park provides boating and fishing in the high desert scenery of the Four Corners region.
