Berlin Fair 2026: Connecticut's Lions Club Agricultural Fair
The Berlin Fair runs September 17–20, 2026 at the Berlin Fairgrounds in Berlin, Connecticut — four days run by the Berlin Lions Club Agricultural Fair.
Connecticut's fair season is dense and Berlin is one of its September anchors: a Lions Club fair with a real agricultural programme rather than a carnival with a livestock tent attached.
What's on the grounds
- Livestock exhibitions
- Handmade crafts
- Food concessions
- Midway rides
- Tractor pulls
- Family entertainment
Check the official Berlin Fair site for current hours, admission pricing, and the tractor-pull schedule.
Connecticut's September fair run
Berlin lands in the busiest stretch of the Connecticut calendar. The Hebron Harvest Fair runs the week before, September 10–13, and the Southington Apple Harvest Festival picks up in early October. Three quite different events inside a month — a Lions Club agricultural fair, a large harvest fair, and a free town-green festival.
Berlin's September 17–20 slot also collides with Tunbridge World's Fair in Vermont and the Granite State Fair in New Hampshire, which makes that weekend the single most contested one on the New England fair calendar.
