People flock to Fessenden, ND each year to experience thrilling carnival rides, vintage displays, mouthwatering food, 4-H and FFA exhibits, adorable animals, and incredible entertainment.

Don't miss the annual highlights like the Main Street Parade, Rhubarb Fest, Beer Gardens, and the fantastic array of local talent on the Free Stage. With exhilarating races, unique vendor shopping, and family-friendly entertainment around every corner, the Wells County Fair is where memories are made. Join us and be part of the tradition!
