About Camden County Fair

The Camden County Fair in Camden celebrates North Carolina's smallest county by population — a Pasquotank River county in the northeastern corner of the state, surrounded by the Great Dismal Swamp, the Pasquotank River, and Albemarle Sound, where farming and waterman traditions have sustained small communities for centuries.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and the tight-knit community spirit of one of North Carolina's most rural and least-visited counties, where agriculture and fishing define daily life.

Visitor Tips

Camden County is almost entirely surrounded by water and wetlands. The Dismal Swamp Canal Trail — part of the Great Dismal Swamp and the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway — passes through Camden County, and Elizabeth City (in neighboring Pasquotank County) is the regional center.
