About Us

The Lincoln County Fair is held annually in Merrill, Wisconsin the county seat of Lincoln County. It is one of the largest events in the county. We are one of a select few Fairs that still have a zero gate fee admission policy and this is part of the reason we have such a draw within the community and surrounding areas. It is estimated that attendance of some 30,000 people over its five-day run are usually a normal turnout depending on circumstances such as weather. Our fairgrounds cover 22 acres in the city of Merrill. The fair is operated by the Lincoln County Fair Association and its army of diligent and caring volunteers.
