Belchertown Fair 2026
5,713 views
The Belchertown Fair & Parade is a free, volunteer-coordinated community fair held on the town common in Belchertown, MA — a fair the organizers describe as grounded in agriculture and civic pride. The 2026 edition is the 167th, themed "Stars, Stripes and Fair Nights" for the country's 250th birthday. Admission to the fair is free — the organizers state plainly that "there is no admission" — and the fair estimates annual attendance between 37,000 and 39,000. The midway is the exception: rides and games are paid, with ride tickets sold at $1 each and most rides taking four to ten tickets, or an unlimited wristband; wristband prices are published by the ride operator rather than by the fair. Alongside the parade there is an exhibit hall, large- and small-animal shows, vendor booths, and a midway presented by Fanelli Amusements; theme awards are given in the parade, the vendor booths and the exhibit hall, and vendor applications open online each spring. Alcohol is not permitted on the grounds, and dogs other than service animals should be left at home.
