Crook County Fair returns with four days of family fun in Prineville
The Crook County Fair is back this week, bringing four days of carnival rides, live entertainment, livestock shows, agricultural exhibits and classic fair food to Prineville.
This year’s “Blue Ribbon Days” fair runs Aug. 5-8 at the Crook County Fairgrounds. Admission and parking are free. Opening night is Wednesday from 5 to 9 p.m., with full-day activities running Thursday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Families can enjoy carnival rides, 4-H and FFA exhibits, livestock competitions, local vendors and entertainment throughout the fair. Organizers say the event continues to celebrate Crook County’s agricultural roots while giving families a chance to come together before summer winds down.
Whether it’s cheering on young exhibitors in the show ring, grabbing fair food or taking in the nightly entertainment, organizers say there’s something for every age.
Visitors are encouraged to check the daily event schedule before heading to the fairgrounds.
