The Skowhegan State Fair is an annual agricultural fair that runs for 10 days every August in Skowhegan. It was first established in 1819 under the name Somerset Central Agricultural Society and is recognized as the oldest continuously running agricultural  fair in the United States.  The fair celebrates Maine's farming heritage with livestock shows, agricultural competitions, harness racing, tractor pulls, demolition derbies, carnival rides, live entertainment and classic fair food.  It's a lively community tradition that blends historic rural roots with family-friendly fun.  Be sure to check out their website for more information.
