About Phelps County Fair
Phelps County Fair offers a mix of experiences, though some visitors find room for improvement. The fair features a demo derby that many attendees enjoyed, praising the quality of cars and drivers. However, seating arrangements for events like the derby can be limited, with some spectators struggling to get a good view due to obstacles like fire trucks. Admission costs $20 per adult, with children under 5 free, but visitors should be aware that additional expenses for rides, food, and drinks are not included in the entry fee. A ticket system is used for food purchases, adding an extra step for attendees. It's recommended to arrive later in the day when rides open, as early hours are primarily for vendors. The fairgrounds can get muddy, so appropriate clothing is advised, and parking may require extra time to find. Overall, while the fair has its highlights, particularly the derby and friendly atmosphere, better organization and operations could enhance the experience.

Great other than for a derby. Super small section blocked off and it's only for the first set of bleachers. We had no choice but to sit the furthest away and couldn't see anything due to fire trucks blocking the view. Wasn't worth what we paid just to watch some cars crash.

It's definitely pretty expensive for a rather modest sized fair (20$ per adult to enter, without any additional perks) Furthermore, you're required to buy food and beverages from food vendors with tickets and not actually cash.
