About Transylvania County Fair

The Transylvania County Fair in Brevard celebrates the Land of Waterfalls — Transylvania County has more waterfalls per square mile than almost anywhere in the eastern United States, with over 250 named falls in the headwaters of the French Broad River, while the county's music community (Brevard Music Center) and white squirrel population add to its distinctive character.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, mountain crafts, local food vendors, and a mountain fair celebrating the agricultural and cultural heritage of one of the most scenically spectacular counties in the eastern United States.

Visitor Tips

Brevard's white squirrel population — a rare genetic mutation — has become the town's unofficial mascot. Looking Glass Falls, Sliding Rock, and DuPont State Recreational Forest's triple waterfalls are must-see natural attractions, and the Brevard Music Center draws classical music talent from around the world.
