Local Tips
Paris, Texas is the "City of a Different Light" with its own Eiffel Tower (topped with a red cowboy hat) — Pat Mayse Lake, the Lamar County cotton fields, and the Red River corridor along the Oklahoma border are nearby.
What You'll Find There
Expect major livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, carnival rides, grandstand entertainment, demolition derby, and a full fair midway serving the farming communities of the Red River Valley corridor.
The Fair
Held annually in Paris, the Red River Valley Fair is a week-long August fair on the edge of the Red River Valley, one of Northeast Texas's premier fair events serving the agricultural communities of Lamar County and the Paris metro area.
