About Washington County Fair

The Washington County Fair celebrates Vermont's capital county — Montpelier is the smallest state capital in the United States, and the county's mix of government workers, dairy farms, and the rural communities of the Winooski River valley come together at a fair in the heart of Vermont's Green Mountains.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, local food vendors, Vermont dairy and maple exhibits, carnival rides, and a community fair drawing from the greater Montpelier area.

Visitor Tips

Montpelier's Vermont State House is one of New England's finest capitol buildings. The Vermont History Museum, Hubbard Park's forest trails, and the local dining scene — Montpelier is known for an exceptional restaurant scene per capita — make the capital a rewarding destination.
