About Taos County Fair

The Taos County Fair celebrates one of America's most extraordinary communities — Taos Pueblo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has been continuously inhabited for over 1,000 years, and Taos town's art colony has attracted Georgia O'Keeffe, D.H. Lawrence, and generations of artists to its clear mountain light and adobe architecture.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors with authentic New Mexican and Pueblo cuisine, arts and crafts exhibits, and a fair drawing from Taos's uniquely diverse community of Native Americans, Hispanic ranchers, and artists.

Visitor Tips

Taos Pueblo's multi-story adobe structures are among the most iconic images in the American Southwest. The Taos Art Museum, the Kit Carson Home and Museum, and the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge — spanning one of the most dramatic gorges in the region — make Taos a destination of singular cultural and natural significance.
