About Marion County Fair

Marion County straddles the Cumberland Plateau's southern escarpment in Southeast Tennessee, home to the dramatic Tennessee River Gorge (the "Grand Canyon of Tennessee"), Nickajack Cave — winter home to the largest colony of gray bats in North America — and the Sequatchie Valley gateway where farming families have held county fairs for generations.

What to Expect

Livestock and agricultural shows, 4-H exhibits, carnival rides, community food vendors, and local entertainment celebrating Marion County's Sequatchie Valley farming heritage and spectacular Tennessee River Gorge setting.

Visitor Tips

Jasper is the Marion County seat. The Tennessee River Gorge offers stunning scenery for hiking and paddling — the views from the canyon rim are among Tennessee's most dramatic landscapes.
