About Webster County Fair

The Webster County Fair in Webster Springs celebrates one of West Virginia's most remote and rugged counties — Webster Springs (originally Addison) sits at the confluence of the Elk and Back Fork rivers in the heart of the Allegheny highlands, and the county's timber, hunting, and small-scale agriculture sustain communities in one of the most geographically isolated counties east of the Mississippi.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, timber and forestry exhibits, local food vendors, traditional mountain music, and the authentic Appalachian spirit of a truly remote West Virginia fair.

Visitor Tips

Webster Springs' mineral springs once drew health seekers to early 20th-century resort hotels. The Elk River's legendary trout fishing, the Gaudineer Knob's old-growth red spruce forest, and the Williams River's remote headwaters define a county of exceptional wild character in the Monongahela National Forest.
