Indian River County Fair, with an average attendance of 50,000 visitors, offers an environment of family fun and entertainment. While showcasing the youth of Indian River County in livestock and agriculture, we also provide a sense of self-esteem to every child. The feeling, which arises from accomplishing something and being rewarded for that accomplishment is very satisfying, we believe hundreds of youth over the years have come away from the fair “as winners”.

All proceeds from this event benefit the Indian River County Burn Fund, Local High School Scholarships, Fair Ground improvements, other Various Charitable organizations, and for the benefit of Public Safety. The fair is located at the Indian River County Fair Grounds at 7955 58th Avenue, Vero Beach, FL 32967. For more visit www.firefightersfair.org.
