Paris, TN
Henry County Fair
The Henry County Youth Livestock Show is part of the bigger Henry County Fair — here’s how the two fit together.
About the fair
A Henry County Tradition
The Henry County Fair brings the whole county together every year in Paris, TN — livestock shows, exhibits, and a chance for local youth to show off months of hard work.
The Henry County Youth Livestock Show & Sale is one of the highlights of fair week. It’s where 4-H and FFA exhibitors from across the county bring their hogs, lambs, goats, and steers to compete and, for many of us, to sell our projects to support our families, our education, and our next year’s project.
More than just the show
Fair Week Activities
The 2026 Henry County Fair runs August 21–30 at the Henry County Fairgrounds, with the carnival midway open August 26–30 (Amusements of America). General admission to the fairgrounds is free.
