About

The Nevada Department of Agriculture is proud to announce the return of the first official, state-sponsored fair since 2010.  This beloved tradition is returning to the Nevada State Fairgrounds in Reno, Nev., June 11-13, 2026, and we invite you to be a part of this historic moment.  

The official State Fair of Nevada will be a vibrant celebration of our state’s rich heritage and agricultural roots.  Comprising educational programming, the annual Nevada 4-H Expo, the Nevada Junior Livestock Show and Sale (including a Governor’s Show and Sale Dinner), a carnival, entertainment, vendors, and food grown and crafted right here in Nevada, the State Fair of Nevada promises something for every Nevadan.
