Franklin County Fair

The Franklin County Fair is a long-standing summer tradition that celebrates agriculture, youth achievement and community pride in the heart of Hilliard. From 4-H project displays and livestock shows to live entertainment, fair food and family-friendly activities, the week reflects the values that have shaped our nation for generations: hard work, innovation and civic engagement. As Ohio recognizes “Ohio Goes to the Fair” month in August, the Franklin County Fair’s July 20–26 dates kick off the spirit of that statewide celebration with an “Ohio Goes to the Franklin County Fair” theme complete with America 250-themed contest classes and themed activities.
