About Lunenburg County Fair

The Lunenburg County Fair in Southside Virginia celebrates a tobacco and livestock county on the Meherrin River where farming traditions run deep in the sandy Coastal Plain soils — Lunenburg is one of Virginia's quieter counties, but its agricultural fair brings together farming families from across the upper Meherrin watershed.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, tobacco heritage exhibits, local food vendors, and a community fair rooted in the Southside Virginia farming culture of a county bordering North Carolina.

Visitor Tips

Lunenburg County borders North Carolina and is part of the Virginia tobacco belt. Lake Gaston — a major reservoir straddling the Virginia-North Carolina line — provides fishing and boating recreation, and the county's peanut and tobacco farms represent a traditional Southern agricultural landscape.
