The Twin Falls County Fair opens Wednesday at the fairgrounds in Filer, bringing carnival rides, food vendors, and family activities to the region for its annual celebration.
New Fair Manager Jerre Christopherson is leading the event in his first year overseeing the county’s signature gathering. The fair will feature traditional carnival attractions including a Ferris wheel, petting zoo, and Fun Slide alongside multiple food stands offering funnel cakes, stuffed pretzels, fresh lemonade, and elephant ears.
Carnival equipment underwent maintenance Monday to prepare for the opening, ensuring rides meet safety standards before guests arrive.
The fair draws families throughout Twin Falls County and the broader Magic Valley region. For those interested in additional regional events, Latino Fest returns to Twin Falls City Park on Saturday, featuring music, food, and family activities, while Twin Falls continues to attract rising visitor numbers through its outdoor and historical attractions.
Those attending should be aware that the fair serves alcohol with Twin Falls County Sheriff’s deputies on hand to maintain order.
