Kinmount Fair Coming Back After Two Year Hiatus Due To The Pandemic

KAWARTHA LAKES-Some good news for kids and the young at heart. The Kinmount Fair is coming back after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The fair is celebrating its 150th year this year and organizers are working hard to make it happen. The very first year for the fair was in 1872 so there is a lot to celebrate.

“Thirteen fairs (throughout Ontario) have dissolved over the past two years,” Guy Scott President of the Kinmount Agricultural Society told the Minden Times. “But this year, restrictions are going to be lifted and come hell or high water, we’re planning on September 2 to 4, Labour Day weekend”

The Kinmount Fair takes place every Labour Day weekend, Friday to Sunday, in the village of Kinmount, Ontario. This year, Labour Day weekend is September 2-4th.

There will be a full midway, truck and tractor pull, talent show, stage shows, camping and more.
