Fryeburg fair
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fryeburg Fair is a large agricultural fair held annually in Fryeburg in the U.S. state of Maine. The fair was first held in 1851, and in subsequent years has grown to become the state's largest agricultural fair. The Fryeburg fair possibly hosts the largest display of oxen and ox competitions of any fair in New England. The fair features livestock shows, harness racing, antique farm and forestry equipment displays and demonstrations, horticultural and culinary contests and displays, a petting zoo, agricultural vendor displays, live musical acts, amusement rides, and food stands. The fair, held over an eight-day period in early October, attracts more than 300,000 people annually.
