About Richland County Fair
The Richland County Fair in Wahpeton celebrates the Red River Valley's southern North Dakota anchor — Wahpeton's location on the Bois de Sioux and Red Rivers at the Minnesota border makes it the starting point of the Red River of the North, and the county's exceptional sugar beet, corn, and soybean production makes it one of North Dakota's most productive agricultural counties.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, sugar beet and corn exhibits, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a well-organized fair drawing from the greater Wahpeton area.
