🎡✨ That’s a wrap on the 2026 Kentucky State Fair! ✨🎡

What a great experience representing Letcher County and sharing a little piece of our Eastern Kentucky home with visitors from across the Commonwealth and beyond! 💚⛰️

I’m always proud to invite folks to come experience our beautiful mountains, rich heritage, welcoming communities, and Appalachian culture for themselves.

A special thank you to our wonderful Kentucky Tourism partners for working together to showcase everything our region and our Commonwealth have to offer.

Until next year, State Fair! ❤️
Now it’s time to come Discover Letcher County! ⛰️✨
