About Palo Pinto County Fair
Held each September in Mineral Wells, Palo Pinto County Fair celebrates the cattle, oil, and mineral springs heritage of a county defined by Possum Kingdom Lake and the famous "Crazy Water" mineral springs.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a community fair in the cedar-oak hills and Brazos River canyon country of Palo Pinto County.
Visitor Tips
Mineral Wells is famous for its healing mineral waters — the historic Baker Hotel (one of Texas's grandest abandoned hotels, currently under restoration), Possum Kingdom Lake State Park (one of the most beautiful lakes in Texas), and the Lake Mineral Wells State Park and Trailway are outstanding destinations.
