Missouri State Fairgrounds

The Missouri State Fairgrounds offer the perfect year-round venue for a variety of events, along with a spacious campground to keep you close to the action. Just as the 11 days of the Missouri State Fair (August 7-17, 2025) are packed with excitement, so is the year-round lineup of entertainment and activities on the Fairgrounds.

Sedalia’s reputation as an accessible regional hub draws visitors from across Missouri and the Midwest to shows, sales, and other events held here. Check out just a sample of the exciting events coming up at the Missouri State Fairgrounds below!
