VISIT THE FAIR
Welcome to the Lincoln County Fair, where Northwoods tradition, community spirit, and summer excitement come together for the best 5 days of summer. For over 130 years, families and visitors have gathered in Merrill to enjoy live music, carnival rides, tractor pulls, demolition derbies, livestock shows, local food, and unforgettable fair memories. As one of Wisconsin’s few remaining free-gate fairs, you can explore the grounds, experience the entertainment, and enjoy everything the fair has to offer without paying admission at the gate. Best of all, the fair is proudly 100% volunteer-run, keeping this beloved community tradition alive for generations to come.
