"Celebrate the State in 2008" is the theme
for Minnesota's largest county fair to be held August
12-17, 2008.
The
Steele County Free Fair is much more than a county fair...it's
a family affair!
As
the largest county fair in Minnesota, our fair offers
a wide variety of events and attractions and admission
is FREE!
For
one week each year the fairgrounds in Owatonna rivals
a large shopping center. Vendors from 25 states bring
a wide range of goods, from crystal to quilts, art to
furniture, potato peelers to RV's. Over 100 food stands
will tease the taste buds of fairgoers and have them eating
everything from cotton candy to prime rib. Kids and adults
of all ages will enjoy events from pig races to the puppet
shows. Thrill seekers will prefer the 30 plus midway rides
or one of the many attractions in adventure alley like
the slingshot. Music lovers of all ages can visit the
FREE entertainment stages and tap their feet to all kinds
of different music. The Grandstand offers eight shows
from auto racing to bull riding. With so much to see and
do, it's no wonder that the Steele County Free Fair was
named "One of the top events in North America".
