Please join us in celebrating the leadership and accomplishments of the 2019-2020 Huntingdon County Fair Queen, Emma Watkins. Her farewell speech can be viewed online using the link below. Thank you, Emma, for being an outstanding representative for agriculture and the Huntingdon County Fair! http://ow.ly/bQVw50AYt1h
Today we would like to take a moment to recognize a man the Huntingdon County Fair was blessed to have known. His performances were enjoyed by hundreds of children on our Midway. Dennie passed away on June 12, 2016. We miss him greatly as not only a performer, but a fair family member.
After careful consideration, the Board of Directors have decided to cancel the 2020 Huntingdon County Fair. The safety of our volunteers, exhibitors, vendors, and community is the most important. We also feel to operate our fair at a reduced capacity to abide by the guidelines set forth at this time would be nearly impossible.
If you are a vendor, the vendor manager will be in contact with you soon.
If you are a fair week camper, you will be receiving a full refund for your spot.
If you are a junior livestock exhibitor, the Junior Livestock Committee is exploring options to help you market your animals.
Even in these times of uncertainty, we will start planning for a bigger and better 2021 Fair. We wish you and your family a safe and healthy summer. We want to thank each and every one of our Huntingdon County Fair supporters.

Central PA Rodeo statement:
As we all know this year has been like no other in more ways than one. We are living through an unparalleled moment in history. For most of us these unprecedented times have hit our businesses and our personal and family lives hard. The reason why the Central PA Rodeo started in 2004 was to support our families and communities. Obviously, we want to put on a great show year in and year out; but the last thing we would want to do is put any of our volunteers, attendees, participants and vendors at risk. Our event is built on the support of our communities and we want to do everything we can to ensure their safety and health because they remain our number one priority.
So, in light of our focus on the public health and well-being of our communities we have made the hard decision to cancel the 16th Central PA Rodeo that was to take place on June 19 & 20."
Canceling the 16th annual Central PA Rodeo was a very difficult decision for fans, volunteers, exhibitors, rodeo athletes, donors, vendors and everyone involved but had to be done in an effort to respectfully comply with the public officials’ directions but most importantly to keep the safety and well-being of our communities at the forefront.
We want to sincerely thank our rodeo committee, staff and volunteers who make the rodeo possible and with the help of many we intend to continue to fulfill our mission of providing a great Christian-based education to any child. Central PA Rodeo thanks you in advance for your support and understanding and we look forward to seeing you at the fairgrounds in Huntingdon on June 18-19 2021.
