About Bandera County Fair

The Bandera County Fair in Bandera is a September fair in the "Cowboy Capital of the World," celebrating the dude ranch, cypress creek, and Hill Country ranching heritage of a county that has welcomed guests to its working cattle ranches since the 1880s.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a community fair with a strong Western and cowboy culture flavor in the cypress-shaded Medina River country of the Texas Hill Country.

Visitor Tips

Bandera lives up to its title as the Cowboy Capital — Arkey Blue's Silver Dollar (the oldest continuously operating honky-tonk in Texas), the Medina River for swimming and kayaking, Lost Maples State Natural Area, and Medina Lake fishing all make Bandera a superb Hill Country destination.
