The fair page still carries the heading “Fair 2026” above the 2027 dates; the dates and hours are what it prints. The fair also lists Miss Butte County, a Kids Zone and livestock programs. The fairgrounds RV park closes every August for the fair.
Also at The Fairgrounds: Holiday Jubilee
The fairgrounds also hosts a Holiday Jubilee and Craft Fair at the Veterans Memorial Building, with local craft vendors, photos with Santa, free face painting and a Mini Stills holiday decor contest. Its page says November 7-8, starting at 10 a.m., but prints no year, so we have not put it on our calendar.
