About York County Fair
The York County Fair in Yorktown celebrates the final battlefield of the American Revolution — Yorktown, where Cornwallis surrendered to Washington in 1781, is in York County, and the county's agricultural heritage coexists with its role in the Hampton Roads military complex and Colonial National Historical Park.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, local food vendors, carnival rides, and a community fair drawing from both the farming families of the lower Virginia Peninsula and the growing population of the Hampton Roads region.
Visitor Tips
York County's Yorktown Battlefield is where the American Revolution effectively ended. Colonial National Historical Park connects Yorktown to Jamestown via the Colonial Parkway, and the Yorktown Victory Center is one of Virginia's premier living-history museums.
