About Dillon County Fair

Dillon County is home to South of the Border — the iconic I-95 tourist attraction with its enormous Pedro mascot, neon signs, and kitschy motels that has been welcoming weary highway travelers since 1949 — while the county's tobacco and cotton farming communities of the Pee Dee region maintain a traditional agricultural fair alongside this celebrated roadside institution.

What to Expect

Livestock and agricultural shows, 4-H exhibits, carnival rides, community food vendors, and local entertainment celebrating Dillon County's Pee Dee tobacco and farming heritage near the NC border.

Visitor Tips

Dillon is the county seat on I-95. South of the Border is an irresistible roadside stop before or after the fair — the kitschy Pedro billboards are as much a part of the I-95 South Carolina experience as anything in the state.
