About Holmes County Fair

The Holmes County Fair in Millersburg sits at the heart of the world's largest Amish community, making it one of Ohio's most unique county fair experiences. Dating to 1850, it is one of Ohio's oldest and most enduring agricultural fair traditions. The fair reflects the deep agricultural traditions of a county where horse-drawn farming is still widely practiced.

What to Expect

Livestock shows are exceptional here, reflecting serious horsemanship and animal husbandry traditions. 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community atmosphere unlike any other Ohio fair.

Visitor Tips

Expect a more traditional, community-focused fair. The surrounding Amish country — buggy rides, cheese shops, furniture stores — is worth a full day of exploration.
