Carman Country Fair

Carman Country Fair July 9 to 11, 2026
Livestock shows, Motorsports, home exhibits, live music, fun for kids & more! The 3 day event is held annually on the second weekend in July.

The Dufferin Agricultural Society Inc hosts one of the oldest running fairs in Manitoba, the Carman Country Fair. The fair was established in 1879 and is an affiliate of the Canadian Association of Fairs and Exhibitions. The Canadian Association of Fairs and Exhibitions believe fairs “hold deep cultural, traditional and emotional connections to the people of their local area and define a sense of

community that grows social capital and quality of life.” In Carman we find this statement to be true as the fair would not be a success without the support of generous sponsors and the many volunteers. The weekend of the fair also brings together new and old friends to celebrate our community and individual talents our community members encompass. Events of the fair include 4-H and livestock shows, craft, flower and baking competitions, trade show venues, motor sports shows and a midway along with incredible entertainment throughout the weekend. We look forward to seeing you this July!

The Farmtastic Fun Zone was one of the highlights of this year’s Carman Country Fair!
With interactive displays inspired by agriculture, it gave kids and families a chance to play, explore, and experience agriculture in a fun way.

Creating experiences like Farmtastic is an important part of bringing agriculture closer to the next generation. Kids can build a stronger connection to where our food comes from and the agricultural community around them.
