Help us keep all our four-legged friends safe!

The Working Dog Foundation is frequently at the Fairgrounds training their incredible K9s to handle every kind of situation. As the weather warms up, we’ve noticed more neighbors out enjoying the grounds with their pets. However, to keep everyone safe—especially during active training sessions—we need your help!

Keep an eye out for our new signs: "K9 Training In Progress."

If you see these signs posted, we kindly ask that you do not bring your pets onto the Fairgrounds until the session is over. This ensures a focused environment for the working dogs and safety for your own furry companions.

Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us keep our community (and its paws!) safe.

To many, Felix 'Junior' Gardner wasn’t just a friend; he was the legendary 'Voice of the Deerfield Fair.' For over 45 years, Junior shared his gift of gab with us, famously announcing, 'It’s that time of year again, Deerfield Fair, this is Junior Gardner speaking.' A twice-awarded 'Golden Mike' winner and a lifelong Association member, Junior spent 15 years as a director and over a decade as an honorary member. He truly lived for these fairgrounds—always ready with a story, a laugh, and a love for fair food. Though he has passed, his unmistakable voice will echo in our hearts every time 'that time of year' comes around again.

Season’s Greetings from the Fairgrounds!

As the snow blankets the grandstands and the quiet of winter settles over the stage, all of us at the Deerfield Fair want to wish you and your loved ones a very Merry Christmas and a joyful holiday season.

This time of year reminds us of the same spirit we see every autumn at the fair: the importance of community, the strength of our agricultural roots, and the simple joy of spending time with family.

Just as the fair has been a staple of New Hampshire life for nearly 150 years, we hope your own holiday traditions are filled with the same laughter and connection that fill our gates each year.
