Countdown Begins for FreeCo Fair and Rodeo

By Bailey McCain

The countdown is on for one of Freestone County’s favorite traditions. The 2026 Freestone County Fair and Rodeo is set for June 15th through June 20th at the fairgrounds in Fairfield, bringing a full week of hometown fun, rodeo action, livestock shows, contests, music, food, and family entertainment.

This year’s parade theme is “Grand Drive,” and the annual parade will once again kick off fair week in downtown Fairfield on Monday evening. The parade has long been a community favorite and officially starts the celebration for a busy week at the fairgrounds.

Along with the rodeo and livestock events, several crowd favorite tournaments are returning this year:

  • • Horseshoes tournament — June 15th following the parade
  • • Washers tournament — June 16th at 7 p.m. in the show arena
  • • Cornhole tournament — June 17th at 7 p.m.

Throughout the week, visitors can expect livestock shows, youth competitions, carnival rides, live entertainment, exhibits, food vendors, rodeo performances, and activities for all ages. The Freestone County Fair and Rodeo continues to highlight the hard work of local 4-H, FFA, and FCCLA students while also giving families a place to gather and celebrate county traditions.

The fairgrounds in Fairfield will be filled with excitement each night as residents and visitors from across the area come together to support local youth and enjoy one of Freestone County’s biggest annual events.
