Virginia State Fair
Today (July 23, 2020) the Virginia Farm Bureau Board of Directors announced the decision to cancel the 2020 State Fair of Virginia®, and instead hold a modified State Fair 4-H Livestock Show. The traditional fair that was scheduled for Sept. 25 through Oct. 4 will not take place due to the complications associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. We've spent hundreds of hours developing plans and scenarios that would allow us to still host the fair this year. At the present time, the commonwealth of Virginia's Phase 3 allows a maximum of 1,000 people to gather for a fair event. This is not a viable financial model for our operation. While our hearts are heavy, we know this is the right thing to do. Thank you for the many ways in which you participate in and support our operation. We will be back in 2021, bigger, better, and stronger.
With sincere gratitude for your loyal support,
Marlene Pierson-Jolliffe,
VP of Operations
