The Fair
Every year, Haysi hosts the Dickenson County Fair, which is a September fair in Virginia's most mountainous and remote corner, where the Russell Fork River has carved Breaks Canyon through the Virginia-Kentucky coalfields.
What You'll Find There
Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and the proud Appalachian community spirit of one of Virginia's most isolated and culturally distinctive mountain counties.
Local Tips
Haysi sits near Breaks Interstate Park — the "Grand Canyon of the South" — where the Russell Fork River has cut a 1,600-foot gorge through the Cumberland Mountains, creating one of the most dramatic landscapes in the eastern United States.
