94th Annual September 26 - 29, 2013
In 1916 the Durham Fair began a tradition. That tradition continues today during the last full weekend in September when the fairgrounds come alive and magically transform into Connecticut’s largest agricultural fair. Come visit the Durham Fair and you’ll see what a real fair is all about. Live entertainment, rides and games on the Midway, first-class animal competitions and discovery events on the Corn Stalk Stage. Along with a trove of crafts, exhibits, shopping and fun food. Yum! The Durham Fair is easy to reach yet hard to leave. We know you will have a great time!
The Durham Fair is owned and operated by the Durham Agricultural Fair Association, Inc., and is a private, not-for-profit corporation. The Durham Fair is the largest fair in North America managed entirely by unpaid volunteers. For more information click About the Fair.

Durham Fair Poster Contest:
Ask anyone about what the Durham Fair means to them and you will get a variety of answers. Because of this, we are looking for local artists to participate in our first annual Durham Fair poster contest.
Our theme for the past years has been: “Good. Clean. Wholesome. Fun.” Let your creativity run free and design a poster that captures the essence of the Durham Fair.
The rules are simple. Entry must be original artwork and vertical layout. The poster should include “94th Annual Durham Fair” along with the dates September 26-29, 2013. Submissions must be received by May 10, 2013.
The winner will be decided through voting done by Durham/Middlefield residents. The winning design will be featured at the Durham Fair and sold in the souvenir shops. The winner will also receive a Durham Fair Fun Package.
If you have questions about the guidelines or submission, please email dhuscher@comcast.net.
