Calling all performers for the 2017 San Juan County Fair, applications are being accepted. Performers from the San Juan Islands and surrounding areas are encouraged to apply online now at www.sjcfair.org.

The 2017 San Juan County Fair will be held Wednesday through Saturday, Aug. 16 – 19 at the San Juan County Fairgrounds, featuring multiple stages, roving family entertainment, educational demonstrations, and exhibits.

The San Juan County Fair is an opportunity to showcase local talent and celebrate the culture of the San Juan Islands. Help represent this region through music, dance, comedy, theater, improv, storytelling, poets, parades, visual artists, and everything in-between at the largest event in San Juan County.

Established in 1906, the Fair is one of Puget Sound’s best kept secrets not to be missed.
