The first Fort
Bend County Fair was held October 6-8, 1933. The original Fairground was
located between Richmond and Rosenberg, on the property now occupied by
Fiesta on Avenue H. In 1974, the Fairground was moved to the existing
location on State Highway 36 just south of U.S. Highway 59 in Rosenberg.
Youth education has always been a primary focus of fair activities. In
recent years, the development of a scholarship program has provided
deserving Fort Bend County students with scholarships to Texas colleges and
universities. Annually, thirty scholarships are awarded to our high school
youth.
Through the years, the Fort Bend County Fair has grown into one of the
largest and most successful fairs in the State. Residents of the county
eagerly anticipate visiting with friends and neighbors at some of the many
activities the Fair has to offer.
The Fort Bend County Fair Association is a non-profit 501(c)(3)
organization. |
