Competitive Exhibits
One of the best ways to enjoy the Durham Fair is by checking out the Competitive Exhibits. This is where fairgoers get to see the talents, hard work and dedication demonstrated by the hundreds and hundreds of kids, teens and adults who enter their exhibits into the fair.

Whether it's the dairy cow proudly raised since birth, the sheep whose wool is knitted into a hat, those scrumptious tomatoes or beautiful flowers that just have to be exhibited, a special photo or craft or homemade pie or jam-the Durham Fair has a spot for all these exhibits and so much more. Fairgoers can easily spend a whole day admiring the skills and talents demonstrated in the Competitive Exhibits.
