MORE
THAN A FAIR
Since 1923, the South Central Area Fair has brought families, agriculture, competition and entertainment together in Hohenwald.
Serving as the county fair for Lewis, Perry and Wayne counties, the fair also welcomes visitors and participants from communities throughout southern Middle Tennessee.
Organized by the South Central Area Fair Board, the event is supported by local public-safety agencies, community organizations, volunteers, businesses and sponsors. As a nonprofit organization, the fair reinvests a portion of its proceeds into Memorial Park improvements, local events and charitable projects throughout the area.
For more than a century, the fair has been a place where neighbors reconnect, children make memories and hometown traditions are passed from one generation to the next.
