This fair is awesome. It is the largest county fair in the state. One of the top ten in the country. Every year they keep improving. Plus there are events almost every weekend throughout the year. New this fall they are adding another new horse barn.

Great selection with some prices extremely high and other prices unbelievably low but still a great way to spend the day. Ditto.

Are there handicap carts available for rent and if so what is the cost? Which gate is for handicap parking?

Jerry Kilgore | Nov 5, 2021
Walworth County Fairgrounds and Campgrounds- Elkhorn, Wisconsin | Nov 5, 2021

Hi Jerry, handicap parking is in the first few rows in the parking across from the Main Gate and also a few are in Amory Gate. They are first come first served. We do not have a company that rents carts. It was tried before but they didn't have enough business to justify the expense. We do not own any. We do have a limited amount of wheel chairs that can be signed out and borrowed. Again, first come first served.

So many cool things for them to do that are free....in the livestock area, they have the Discovery Barn. That is open all day. They have pig races to watch throughout the day. Take the kids to the barnyard adventure stage. They have various shows going on throughout the day. Also barnyard adventure has a butterfly barn to go through and lots of cool educational things to see. This is just a few of the free things. Hope this helps!
