A Closer Look
The Paulding County Fair kicks off Ohio's fair season each June, making it one of the earliest county fairs in the state. Its history stretches back to 1851, placing it among Ohio's oldest agricultural fairs. It serves the flat agricultural heartland of extreme northwestern Ohio, where farming is a way of life.
Fair Highlights
Livestock shows, 4-H competitions, carnival rides, fair food, and grandstand entertainment with harness racing fill the week.

As one of Ohio's first fairs of the season, Paulding is a great early-summer destination before the summer fair calendar gets crowded.
