GOSHEN — More than 200 Elkhart County youth and their families are enjoying the 2025 Elkhart County 4-H Fair at no charge thanks to the Elkhart County Convention & Visitors Bureau.
As one of Elkhart County’s most beloved institutions with a rich history honoring our area’s agricultural past, present and future, the Elkhart County 4-H Fair is a favorite for families of all ages.
“We are excited to support the Elkhart County 4-H Fair’s place in the cultural and historical fabric of our cities, towns and rural spaces. For decades, the fairgrounds has been a place of meaningful connection for Elkhart County families, with inviting and attractive public spaces adding to the experience,” said Jon Hunsberger, executive director of the Elkhart County CVB.
More than 200 general admission tickets to the Elkhart County 4-H Fair, which runs July 18-26, 2025, were distributed to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Elkhart County and the Tolson Center for Community Excellence. The ticket sponsorship is only one part of the Elkhart County CVB’s support of the Fair. A new crowd favorite, a spectacular Drone Show, is also sponsored by the Elkhart County CVB. The Drone Show will run two nights, at around 9:45 p.m. Monday, July 21, and Tuesday, July 22.
“We’re thankful for the Elkhart County CVB’s generous support for the Drone Show. More than 400 drones will light up the night sky over the fairgrounds in a stunning display of artistry featuring Fair-related images. There are few better ways to enjoy the Fair than a full day of activities capped off by the Drone Show,” said Randi Yoder, Fair Board president.
About 200,000 visitors attend the Elkhart County 4-H Fair every year, including local residents as well as visitors, vendors and exhibitors from the Elkhart County region and Midwest. It is one of the largest fairs in the state of Indiana. The 2025 theme is “Taste the Flavor, Share the Fun.”
