You are invited to experience the same wholesome atmosphere filled with fellowship, food and friendly competition today that the founders of the Solanco Fair envisioned over 70 years ago. In the spring of 1950, a group of farm women enthusiastically decided that the Solanco area needed a fair of its own. With the help of many different community and agricultural based organizations, in September of that same year, the first Solanco Fair made its debut and was here to stay. Our Fair exhibits everything you’d expect from our farming community, and it also is well supported by businesses and organizations who want to share their products and services. Spread out on the grounds are numerous food stands sure to make sure no one goes hungry.

The Ephrata Fair, “The largest street fair in Pennsylvania” has been a significant part of local history, showcasing our many agricultural events and exhibits, as well as all the fun on the Midway. ​ Agriculture is Pennsylvania’s number one industry, and at the Ephrata Fair, we’re proud to do our part in promoting and preserving our agricultural heritage all while organizing a fun and memorable event for residents of Ephrata and beyond. The Ephrata Farmers Day Association is the managing organization that oversees all aspects of the Ephrata Fair.    Antique Farm Machinery   –   Ephrata Park* Apiary (Honey)   –   Fair Building Art   –   Fire Hall Association Show   –   Ephrata Park* Baked Goods   –   Fair Building Flowers   –   Fire Hall Crafts   –   Fire Hall Models   –   Fair Building Fruits & Nuts   –   Ephrata Park* Grains & Sunflowers   –   Ephrata Park* Homemade Wines   –   Fair Building Canned Goods   –   Fair Building Livestock   –   Ephrata Park* Vegetables   –   Ephrata Park* Needlework   –   Borough Hall Photography   –   Fair Building Decorated Wheelbarrows   –   Ephrata Park* *Grater Memorial Park is the official name.
