The Highlands County Fair is held annually in February and is a 501c3 non-profit organization established in 1937. Each year we are proud to host over two hundred 4-H and FFA youth exhibiting projects such as livestock, crafts and citrus. We also offer events for the adults to participate in such as Community Arts and Crafts. The Highlands County Fair welcomes over 35,000 patrons that attend the nine (9) day Fair annually to enjoy a wide array of food, exhibits, shows and carnival rides. The 88th Annual Highlands County Fair will be held February 7th-15th, 2025.
The Highlands County Fair Association is run on the generosity of volunteers, and we operate with the help of sponsorships and donations, without which we would not be a Fair at all. All sponsorships are a tax-deductible investment that will benefit both the Fair and your business. Your sponsorship will go toward different expenses such as tickets, trophies, ribbons, building supplies, entertainment and much more. We are proud to offer a unique way to help enhance your business marketing, exposure, advertising and public relations goals while bringing you the gift of agriculture, education and recognition to our county’s youth.
We offer a wide variety of sponsorship opportunities in addition to the packages below and on the accompanying pages. We are more than happy to work with you to create a custom sponsorship that can include any of the listed package benefits in addition to ‘a la carte’ items to best match your business objectives. Depending on the sponsorship investment, the following are some examples of the unique opportunities that can be tailored to achieve your marketing and community outreach goals.
- Specific Entertainment shows & Exhibits, Buildings and other entertainment areas
- Print materials such as the Junior Livestock Auction Program & Pageant Programs.
- Single Day events such as Senior Day and Student Day
- Trophies, ribbons and other awards for competitive exhibits
The Highlands County Fair Association is proud to invest in our youth who will become the business leaders of tomorrow. Any way that you wish to contribute to the Highlands County Fair, rest assured that your sponsorship will be used wisely and will be most appreciated.
