Expect major livestock and dairy shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, grandstand entertainment, demolition derby, and a full fair midway in the heart of northeastern Pennsylvania's recreation country.

The Fair

The Wayne County Fair, based in Honesdale, is a nine-day August fair in the Pocono/Catskills gateway region of northeastern Pennsylvania, one of the Northern Tier's premier county fairs celebrating the dairy and agricultural heritage of a county known for its lakes and forests.

Local Tips

Honesdale is the eastern terminus of the Delaware & Hudson Canal, which brought anthracite coal to New York City — the Wayne County Historical Society, Stourbridge Line excursion railroad, and the Pocono Mountains and Lake Wallenpaupack are all nearby.
