Blue Ribbons and Rides: Find a Tennessee County Fair Nearest You

It’s fair season in Tennessee, and that means you might be looking for funnel cakes and the menagerie of lights from the Ferris wheel.

Many of Tennessee’s fairs — including the Tennessee State Fair — happen between August and September. These events invite the agricultural community to showcase its best, whether that is livestock, poultry, artisan goods, baked treats and more.

Before you go to the fair, remember Co-op has you covered to get prepared to get your cows, pigs, rabbits, ducks and chickens ready for show. We also have canning and jam jars for you to enter your best into the fair.

We hope you find the bright blue ribbon you’re looking for this fair season. Visit any of our Co-op locations to find what you need before your fair entries.

Here are the fairs coming up all across the state.
