July 12-17, 2025
The Sioux County Youth Fair will be moving to the former Sioux Center Airport site, which will now be call “The Sioux County Ag Expo”. The fair board sees this as a great opportunity to form a partnership with the Sioux County Ag Expo board and be able to use their new facilities for our fair week. The Sioux County Ag Expo is the property in which the Sioux County Youth Fair will take place. The property is not owned by the Sioux County Fair. It is a facility for us to use every second week in July to host our County Fair.
In October of 2022, the county was able to purchase the old airport north of Sioux Center for the purpose of building an agriculture facility to host the Sioux County Youth Fair. The Sioux County Ag Expo board has been working hard at designing a layout and facilities that will provide added benefits for many events.
