About York County Fair
York County is Upstate South Carolina's northernmost county anchored by Rock Hill and Fort Mill along the Catawba River — fast-growing Charlotte suburbs where South Carolina's largest theme park (Carowinds), Historic Brattonsville, and Kings Mountain National Military Park define a county of remarkable range from revolutionary battlefields to modern resort entertainment. The area's broader history includes notable events and landmarks dating to 1780.
What to Expect
Livestock and agricultural competitions, 4-H and FFA exhibits, carnival rides, grandstand entertainment, and fair food serving York County's large and rapidly growing Charlotte metro community straddling the NC-SC border.
Visitor Tips
York is the county seat but Rock Hill is the largest city — both on US-21 south of Charlotte. Kings Mountain National Military Park preserves the site of a pivotal 1780 battle that turned the tide of the Revolution in the South.
