Welcome everyone to the 188th Odessa Fair!

It is the time when our community and surrounding areas gather to celebrate agriculture, meet old friends, make new ones and take in everything the fair has to offer.

We open Friday evening at 5pm with the midway, tractor pull, vendors and exhibits in the Palace.

We are happy to welcome Cope Amusements to our fair this year. On Saturday after the parade there will be children’s games followed by magic shows and daily shows of the Motocross Freestyle Motorcycles as well as the you can try the climbing wall.

As always there will be cattle, horse and poultry shows, musical entertainment, home craft, vegetable and flower exhibits, bingo, horse and pony pull, tractor pull and the weekend will end with the demolition derby. Be sure to come early on Sunday to see the kids’s power wheel derby and cheer them on.

I would like to extend a thank you to our dedicated directors, advertisers, volunteers, participants and sponsors whose hard work, commitment and enthusiasm throughout the year make the Odessa Fairgrounds a success. I encourage you to become a part of the fair tradition, attend, exhibit, volunteer, watch the events, support the concessions and Welcome Cope Amusements to Odessa.
