The Lundar Fair
New for 2023 - the Lundar Fair is being held on the 3rd weekend of June.2023 Fair – Friday, June 16th & Saturday, June 17th, 2023
The Lundar Fair
The very first Lundar Fair was held in the fall of 1927. Apart from pausing from 1933 to 1953 for the great depression and World War II and for the Global Covid – 19 Pandemic in 2020 and 2021, it’s been held each year. Since then it’s grown into an event that the community looks forward to year after year.
New for 2023: The Lundar Fair is held the third weekend in June.
The 69th Annual Fair will be held Friday, June 16th & Saturday, June 17th, 2023.
Saturn Shows, our midway for many years, has retired. We thank them for their years of providing wonderful memories at our Annual Fair. We have had to change our date to ensure we have midway at our Fair and welcome Select Shows!
