About King William County Fair

The King William County Fair celebrates a Pamunkey and Mattaponi River county where two of Virginia's few remaining Native American reservations maintain their traditional territories — the Pamunkey and Mattaponi tribes have lived here continuously for thousands of years, and the county's farming history layers European settlement atop this deep indigenous heritage.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair that reflects the diverse historical heritage of this river-bounded Tidewater county.

Visitor Tips

The Pamunkey Indian Museum in King William County tells the story of one of Virginia's oldest native communities. The Mattaponi and Pamunkey rivers offer excellent fishing, and the county's rural roads pass through landscapes that were part of the Powhatan Confederacy in Captain John Smith's time.
