The Sandwich Fair is a traditional agricultural fair held over Columbus Day weekend. It is a huge fair with a little bit of everything, offering great food, a car show, animals, rides, entertainment, contests, and lots more. Many find it to be the best fair in New Hampshire, describing it as extremely well managed with all the quintessential fair goodness while still feeling small and safe, making it excellent for families. Visitors note the good energy and pleasant atmosphere, with lots of smiles, photos, and memories. The food options are very impressive. It includes agricultural exhibits and competitions, crafts, farm animals, and midway rides, providing a great hometown fair experience.
This fair is great for family. They have a great food variety with a entire section of the fair just being food and animals. For the adults there are all types of games and challenges throughout the weekend you can sign up for if you are not a fan of the rides.
