Our success is rooted in our community, where we provide wholesome, affordable, and family-oriented entertainment while also educating the public about the benefits of Idaho agriculture. We are deeply grateful for the ongoing support of our dedicated staff, board of directors, superintendents, vendors, and volunteers, whose tireless work ensures an unforgettable experience for all. Over the past decade, the Fair has not only set seven attendance records but also raised over $400,000 annually for youth programs in Eastern Idaho, bringing the total to over $4 million.
The Eastern Idaho State Fair has always been a celebration of who we are — our community, our heritage, and the traditions that bring us together. With America celebrating 250 years, we’re thrilled to bring a fair experience that honors our past while delivering nine days of unforgettable entertainment.
