We are pleased to announce the 110th edition of the Sebastian County Fair & Rodeo in Greenwood, Arkansas. The Fair will kick off on Wednesday, August 23, with the Jr. Livestock Show starting at 8 a.m. The show is free to the public. We will be honoring retired Sebastian County Judge, David Hudson. At 5 p.m. the gates open for the fair. It is $1 admission on opening night. All of the gate proceeds will go to the Ronald McDonald House in Fort Smith.
There will be live music every day of the fair which runs through Sunday, August 27. On Thursday and Friday morning we will welcome kids from around the county for School Days. Last year we had 1,100 children attend. Kids get to see all of the livestock, Smokey Bear will make an appearance, tour the exhibits and much more.
New to the fair this year will be a kids free zone featuring inflatables which is being sponsored by Arvest Bank. Friday night will kick off two days of rodeo. Bulls and Broncs will battle the athletes on Friday night and Saturday night will feature Mutton Busting and a Ranch Rodeo.
