Don't Miss a Minute of the Action

We are working to make this another great Mercer County Fair with plenty of competitive events and grandstand shows. We have a new grandstand event and a new sanctioning body for one of our long-time events.

New in the grandstand this year is a 4x4 Truck Tug of War scheduled for Wednesday, July 15. This is for residents of Mercer, Knox, Henderson, Warren, Henry and Rock Island county and will feature three classes of trucks in the tug of war, plus a "King of the Pull" event for overall bragging rights.

And, the Illini State Pullers are sanctioning our truck and tractor pull on Friday, July 17. This show will feature three classes of ISP 4x4 trucks and two classes of ISP tractors, as well as three local classes of 4x4 stock trucks.

As always, we have loads of 4-H, Junior and Open Class livestock shows, as well as the C.D.A.C. Amusements for carnival entertainment.
