Steele County Fairgrounds Park

Both of my daughters who are 10 years APART @ 17 N 7 as well as my mom n myself absolutely adore this fair! It's the one we look forward to the most each summer! From a ride for every type of rider, to the exotic animal's petting zoo, or the henna tattoos to the facepainting there are plenty of things to do! So many in fact it's hard to fit it all into one day! Plus the shopping is incredible whatever you could possibly want you will find it and more!! We personally loved Adam's Rock Box! Very knowledgeable, sweet people who are more than helpful and went out of their way to make my 7 year old the bracelet she wanted just because they heard her say she wanted it so they asked her what she wanted and made it happen! Was just amazing plus Adam makes it fun to learn about the geodes he cracks open for you! Definitely suggest stopping by, all ages fun and beautiful wears! Last but not least if you like food trucks and/or fair food they have more than enough to make you leave full with your bag of cotton candy untouched lol. They have something for every type of eater and even a saloon for the adults to wash down some of that delicious fair munchies n meals! You can see ribbon dancers and motorcycle stunts and not pay a penny! Definitely a staple in our summer plans yearly, n one you w/ family or a group of friends should most definitely check out! It's very much different from almost all other fairs you will go to, plus you will spend less on entertainment than you will going to the movies! Not including any shopping or eating you may do! Lol. They also have an arena for horse n cattle shows as well as other such forms of entertainment and that's free as well!

The Steele County Fairgrounds is one of the gems of County fairs in Minnesota. The amount of people, vendors, rides and exhibitors makes other fairs seem small. They also get great events for the grandstand and it is a fair to visit and often rivals the grandeur of the State Fair while still staying a free fair. There is tons of parking in various places around the fair. This is the County fair I took my 4-H projects to, photography pictures and visited each summer. Now we continue to visit it even though we live in a different county.
