about the fair
40th anniversary this year
This annual event is held in at the Newport, PA Fairgrounds every year in the latter part of August. The Fair Grounds are beautifully maintained by local volunteers. There is plenty to do for the whole family at the fair. Rides for all ages, games, lots of local businesses on hand showing their support. There are animals, contests, exhibits and entertainment including live music, pony races, a chili cook off and the popular Perry County Fair Queen Pageant. Admittance is free to get on the grounds, there is a fee to park and there are always specials to keep it affordable.
