We’re proud of how Bedford County was represented at the Best of Tennessee competition!

These qualifying entries went on to represent our fair and county at the Wilson County - Tennessee State Fair, and six of them earned ribbons at the state level!

Congratulations to every exhibitor whose work advanced to Best of Tennessee, and an extra congratulations to our ribbon winners. It’s always exciting to see the talent displayed at our county fair go on to be recognized alongside entries from across Tennessee.

The Wilson County - Tennessee State Fair is officially underway! 🎡

If you're headed to the fair, be sure to stop by the Travel Tennessee Exhibit in the Made in Tennessee Building and check out Bedford County's display! We loved putting together a little piece of home to showcase our community alongside counties from across the state.

And while you're there, keep an eye out for some familiar Bedford County names in the Best of Tennessee Competition! In a few days, we'll be highlighting our Best of Tennessee competitors and winners who are representing Bedford County at the state level.

Over 10,000 reasons to say... thank you. ❤️

As another Bedford County Fair has come to a close, our hearts are full.

This year, more than 10,000 people walked through our gates. Families made memories, children experienced the fair for the very first time, old friends reunited, exhibitors proudly showcased months of hard work, volunteers gave countless hours, and our community came together to celebrate what makes Bedford County so special.

To everyone who attended, exhibited, competed, volunteered, entertained, and cheered from the sidelines—thank you. You are the reason this fair continues to grow year after year.

To our incredible sponsors, thank you for believing in our mission and investing in this tradition. Your generosity allows us to continue providing educational opportunities, family entertainment, and a place where our community can gather each summer. Simply put, this fair would not be possible without your support.

Being voted Best Annual Community Event for the third year in a row and welcoming over 10,000 guests is an incredible honor, but the greatest reward is seeing this community come together each July.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making the 2026 Bedford County Fair one for the record books.

We'll see you next year. ❤️
