A week from today the 2020 Marion County Fair will begin. Due to COVID-19 the fair will not feature live entertainment as all entertainment has been postponed until 2021. This includes the Lonestar and Craig Morgan Concert, Carnival, Pro Wrestling, Truck Pull and other daily kid activities. The fair plans to proceed with the livestock portion of the fair as planned, and are offering a “show and go” option to any exhibitor that chooses. 

In addition to the livestock portion of the fair, Marion County Extension and Outreach has partnered with Sequoia Fitness in Pella to host Morning Yoga at the Fair on Monday, July 20th.  Morning Yoga at the Fair will begin at 7 a.m. and will be held in front of Dyer Hudson Hall.
