About Harnett County Fair

The Harnett County Fair in Lillington celebrates a Cape Fear River county anchored by Fort Bragg (now Fort Liberty) — one of the world's largest military installations — where the farming communities of the sandhills and Piedmont transition zone have maintained their agricultural fair traditions alongside the county's major military presence.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a fair drawing from both the military families of Fort Liberty and the farming communities of the Cape Fear River corridor.

Visitor Tips

Lillington is the county seat overlooking the Cape Fear River. Fort Liberty (Fort Bragg), the 82nd Airborne Division War Memorial Museum, and the Raven Rock State Park's rhododendron-filled gorge are major county attractions reflecting Harnett's dual military and natural character.
