About Rutherford County Fair

Rutherford County is one of America's fastest-growing counties, anchored by Murfreesboro — now Tennessee's fourth-largest city — where Middle Tennessee State University, the Stones River National Battlefield, and explosive suburban growth from Nashville have transformed a farming community into a major metropolitan center while the county fair celebrates agricultural roots.

What to Expect

Livestock and agricultural competitions, 4-H and FFA exhibits, large carnival midway, major grandstand entertainment, commercial and craft vendors, and diverse fair food serving Rutherford County's enormous and rapidly growing population.

Visitor Tips

Murfreesboro is on I-24 southeast of Nashville. The Stones River National Battlefield tells the story of one of the Civil War's bloodiest battles fought on January 2, 1863 — a powerful historical complement to the county fair.
