The 2024 Winn Parish Fair is set for its annual run Sept. 30 through Oct. 5, not that far off for those making final plans for their canning, homemaking, art, livestock and other competition entries.

This year’s theme is “United We Stand.”  For those of you who are exhibiting or setting up booths, organizers would love to see your creativity with this theme!  Everyone is encouraged to find some way to participate. The Fair Catalog printed below contains over 1,000 different premium numbers. That means there are many ways you can participate and become an exhibitor in the fair yourself. There are no entry fees for being an exhibitor, so please read through the instructions for becoming an exhibitor, join in, and earn some extra spending money!

Organizers are looking forward to an exciting year and hope you and your family will all come out for a great time! Whether wandering through the livestock exhibits before heading to the carnival rides, taste-testing the amazing food at all the booths, or participating as an exhibitor, there is a way for everyone to be involved.

Many young people are learning how to care for livestock, and this is their opportunity to show off the best of their work. Artists, crafters, quilters, canners, cooks, bakers, photographers, horticulturists, and more from the amateur to the expert, from young to old, submit their exhibits to be judged at the fair. Come walk through our exhibit building and see what they have made and how they have placed!

“We want remind you that that we, as citizens of Winn Parish, pride ourselves on having a family-friendly fair. Therefore, please be considerate of how you treat one another, how you treat those who work at the fair, and of being aware of your own behavior.
