“One Great County, One Great Fair”
With the theme, “One Great County, One Great Fair,” The Navajo County Fair, Inc. is proud to welcome rodeo fans and rodeo athletes from all over the country to their 87th Annual rodeo. With origins dating back to 1926 in Taylor, Arizona and since its permanent residence in Holbrook, Arizona in 1931, The Navajo County Fair and Rodeo “takes great pride in maintaining a traditional down-home county fair and it is our hope everyone in Navajo County will come and enjoy the food, fun, entertainment, exhibits, and carnival.”
