Weekend full of fun at Priddis & Millarville Fair

Christine Cation feeds her daughter Sadie as Hawkley Dzilums spots for them during a pie eating contest at the Priddis and Millarville Fair on Aug. 20, 2023.

This weekend’s Priddis & Millarville Fair is promising ‘Country Fun for Everyone.’ 

The fair runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. today (Saturday, Aug. 17) and tomorrow (Sunday, Aug. 18) at the Millarville Racetrack.  

Admission is free.  

The fair celebrates the area’s rich agricultural history and brings the community together for a weekend jam-packed with activities. 

There will be farm animal displays, a wide range of exhibits, antique autos and tractors, and plenty of competitions, including pie and watermelon eating contests. 

There will also be agricultural-themed competitions involving sheep, cattle, horses and llamas as well as the always-popular rooster crowing contest. 

Crowds will cheer on participants in the tractor pull and Farm Strong Games, which will feature a hay bale toss and tug of war. 

The weekly Millarville Farmers’ Market will take place on Saturday, while a specialty market is on Sunday’s calendar.
