Classic carnival rides, fair food, and games of skill are happening at the fairgrounds on 8th Street in Eldon from July 4-8, 2017. Each evening from 6 pm to 10:30 pm you can purchase a $20 wristband for unlimited carnival rides. Tickets will also be available for individual rides.
The Events
It's not just the carnival action that everyone looks forward to each year. There are many events to both watch and compete in at the fair. Ciara Stewart was already crowned as the 2017 Miss Miller County on Tuesday evening, and Madison McGinnis was crowned as the 2017 Miss Teen Miller County. The Little Mr. & Miss Miller County competition will take place on Wednesday night.
Other remaining events for this year's fair include youth livestock shows, 4-H and FFA exhibits, a truck & tractor pull, a compact figure 8 challenge, and the always popular demolition derby. If you're in the mood for excitement and good ol' country charm, you are sure to find something to enjoy at the Miller County Fair.
