Over the Mountain at the Bluemont Fair

/in /by

The 54th annual Bluemont Fair is slated for September 21–22 in Bluemont, Va., 10am until 5pm both days. Activities take place at locations throughout the village, offering something for people of all ages and interests.

Fair organizers invite Clarke Countians to venture over the mountain to wander through  their 200-year-old village. Browse artisan crafts, and enjoy local wine, beer, and music, all while experiencing the history and traditions of  the area.  Grab a bite to eat or attend an archaeology demonstration while the children enjoy free games in the Children’s Fair or visit the petting zoo.

A sampling of things to see and do:

  • Museum exhibit quilting;
  • Blacksmith and wood turners;
  • A giant bake sale;
  • Model trains;
  • Barrel rides;
  • Draft horses;
  • A petting zoo!

The fair offers free parking in a field located on Snickersville Turnpike, just south of the village. Follow the signs through the village to the parking lot. Parking attendants will be available to direct you.

There is a small lot for those with disabled stickers on Snickersville Turnpike beside Epling Landscaping, and there are several rows reserved for people with disabilities in front of the main fair parking lot. Be ready to show your credentials to the traffic attendants and they will help you find a space. The fair is not 

wheelchair friendly.
