Grand County Fair 2027

The Grand County Fair is Moab's classic hometown celebration, held over Independence Day weekend at the Old Spanish Trail Arena. Three days of small-town Americana include rodeo events, live music, a craft and vendor market, kids' activities, and traditional fair exhibits from livestock to baked goods.

The weekend culminates with the Fourth of July parade, one of the few times each year the whole community lines Main Street together. For visitors, it's a rare look at the Moab that exists beyond the adventure-tourism economy.

July days are hot — plan park adventures for dawn, then spend the evening at the fairgrounds when the desert cools off.
