What You'll Find There
Highlights include livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, home arts exhibits, carnival rides, and the intimate community atmosphere of a fair in one of West Virginia's most rural and unhurried counties.
The Fair
Held each August in Elizabeth, the Wirt County Fair is a four-day community tradition in West Virginia's second-smallest county by population, where the Little Kanawha River winds through hills that have changed little in a century.
Local Tips
Elizabeth is a small county seat town on the Little Kanawha River — North Bend State Park and the North Bend Rail Trail are nearby, offering scenic hiking and rail-trail cycling through the forested hills.
