About Montgomery County Fair

The Montgomery County Fair in Christiansburg celebrates a New River Valley county home to Virginia Tech — Montgomery County's agricultural heritage meets university culture where the Appalachian mountains, the New River, and one of Virginia's largest universities shape community identity.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a fair that draws from both the farming families of the New River Valley and the broader Blacksburg-Christiansburg community.

Visitor Tips

Montgomery County is home to Virginia Tech and the Smithfield Plantation, one of the finest examples of a 18th-century frontier plantation. Prices Fork, Ellett, and other historic communities reflect the county's agricultural past, while the New River provides whitewater paddling and fishing opportunities.
