Loudoun County Fair

What Sets It Apart

Established in 1936 and run by Loudoun 4-H, the Loudoun County Fair is held each July at the Loudoun County Fairgrounds in Leesburg as the club's primary annual fundraiser, with proceeds going back into the fairgrounds. The 2022 fair drew 20,000 attendees — smaller than the other fairs on this list, but one of the region's longest-running.
