On Tuesday, October 5, the Halifax County Fair will open with five days of special events celebrating its 100th Anniversary. This year’s event will showcase a retrospective of an annual tradition that began on lower Main Street in South Boston VA and has grown to be a cornerstone fall event that continues to unite the community through agriculture, rides, food and music.

The Fair's new website (http://www.halifaxcountyfair.com) has just been launched, along with the schedule for performers who have been booked so far.  This year's entertainment will include the flamboyant Marty Stuart, the Second Annual Bluegrass Festival, and the Annual 4-H Talent Show that has been so popular over the years.
