What began in 1905 as a small potato festival has grown into the beloved El Paso County Fair—a place where community, tradition, and fun come together on the eastern plains of El Paso County. While the Fair is El Paso County's biggest community event, we keep the excitement going year-round with Fall Fest, the Country Holiday Fair, auto races, and a variety of local celebrations.
We’re proud to partner with 4-H and FFA, hosting events that support youth in agriculture, leadership, and community service. To learn more, click here.
The El Paso County Fair & Events Center is also a versatile, multi-use facility with spaces available for weddings, meetings, livestock shows, and more. Visit our Facility Rentals page to start planning your next event.
Whatever the season, there’s always a reason to gather at the Fairgrounds.
