About Lincoln County Fair

The Lincoln County Fair in Lincolnton celebrates a Catawba River county with ironworks and textile heritage — Lincoln County's colonial-era iron furnaces were among the earliest industrial sites in the Carolina backcountry, and today the county's growing Charlotte-area population and its agricultural communities meet at a well-attended fall fair.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a community fair drawing from both the farming families of the Catawba River valley and the growing suburban population of Charlotte's western communities.

Visitor Tips

Lincolnton's downtown has been revitalized with shops and restaurants. The Catawba River provides fishing, paddling, and Lake Norman recreation, and the county's proximity to Charlotte makes it an attractive bedroom community with a distinct agricultural heritage.
