The Ephrata Fair, “The largest street fair in Pennsylvania” has been a significant part of local history since 1919, showcasing our many agricultural events and exhibits, as well as all the fun on the Midway.
Agriculture is Pennsylvania’s number one industry, and at the Ephrata Fair, we’re proud to do our part in promoting and preserving our agricultural heritage. The agricultural farming exhibits, prize-winning animals, tractor events and other family fun contests known as Tent City is located in the Tom Grater Memorial Park.

The Ephrata Fair Board appreciates the generous contributions from local businesses and individuals who
believe in the Ephrata Fair. Without their support, the Ephrata Fair would not survive.
Please thank them by supporting these community-minded businesses.
Each year Ephrata Fair hosts various contests and exhibits that test and showcase the talent and creativity of our community
During the week of the Fair, chicken BBQ tickets will be available for purchase at the main Fair Office and at the Ephrata Fair food stand at Tent City. Proceeds from this fundraiser will benefit the Ephrata Fair. Tickets are $6 each.
