Allegan County Fair & Fairgrounds in Allegan

One of Michigan’s biggest and best-loved fairs, the Allegan County Fair is an end-of-summer tradition that brings the fun every year. We’re talking big-name concerts, farm charm, and all the fried food your heart (and stomach) can handle.

Every September, the fairgrounds light up with rides, grandstand shows, livestock competitions, and non-stop entertainment for all ages. Past headliners? Oh, just Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Fall Out Boy, to name a few.

Allegan County Fairgrounds sits along the Kalamazoo River in Allegan, about 30 minutes northwest of Kalamazoo, and hosts one of Michigan’s largest county fairs.

Beyond the Allegan County Fair, visitors head to the Fair Grounds for big-name concerts, carnival rides, livestock shows, and year-round events that keep the grounds buzzing beyond fair week.
