This is the big day Exhibitors have been preparing for all summer, judging day, and awards!  The pride and satisfaction of seeing their work on display and the recognition that they have successfully completed their project. See a complete judging schedule for Junior and Open Class Exhibitors from our online calendar.

The smell of yummy fried food will fill the air as the Dodge County Fair starts this morning at 8 am just 3 miles East of Beaver Dam, WI. Judging of foods, exhibits, and other entries starts at 9 am in the open class exhibit building and other locations throughout the grounds.  To celebrate a busy day at the Fair stay for the Badger State Tractor Pull at the Grandstand.

Enjoy the many Family FREE shows throughout the grounds starting with the Pig, Duck, and Goat Races at 12 Noon, Nicks Kids Show at 3 pm, and the educational Wild World of Animals show at 3:30 pm. Showtimes continue throughout all five days of the Fair, see our complete schedule on the Wednesday Fair Page.

Be ready at 1 pm because it’s Wristband Day on the Midway! Purchase a wristband and ride as many rides as you can from 1 to 5 pm or 6 to 10 pm. If your stomach can’t take the twists and turns of the zipper you can purchase tickets individually for $1.25 each or 20 for $20. Visit our Midway Rides Page for more information.
