Chesterfield County Fair

About Chesterfield County Fair

The Chesterfield County Fair is a nine-day late-August through Labor Day celebration in suburban Richmond, one of Virginia's largest county fairs drawing visitors from across the Richmond metropolitan area to one of the state's fastest-growing counties. First held in 1911, it has been a Virginia agricultural tradition for over a century.

What to Expect

Expect major livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, live entertainment, demolition derby, and a full fair midway serving the diverse communities of one of Virginia's most populous counties.

Visitor Tips

Chesterfield sits on the south bank of the James River across from Richmond — the nearby Richmond battlefields, James River parks, and the Virginia State Capitol and museums are all easily accessible.
