Bursting with
energy and diversity, the Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair is
distinctly an exciting rural fair. The 5-day celebration
held annually Wednesday through Sunday following Labor Day
is located just 4 miles south of the California-Oregon
border. It is without question the single largest annual
event held in the Klamath Basin as it attracts over 60,000
people of all ages and backgrounds. It is truly a unique
celebration, gaining regional and statewide attention as a
model “old-fashioned fair,” proud of it’s “free-gate,”
“free-parking” and “no alcohol” status. We take great pride
in our ability to safely and effectively produce the
excitement, intrigue, fun and attraction of our event, while
maintaining the highest level of professionalism in business
practice standards.
The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair distinguishes itself from
other county fairs because of the integral role that it
plays in it’s very small community. The Tulelake-Butte
Valley Fair is an economic, social and cultural treasure for
local communities. In 2002, the fair contributed over 3
million in economic impact to Siskiyou, Modoc, and Klamath
Counties, created 41 local jobs and generated over #32,000
in local tax revenues.
The fair’s relationship with the local communities reaches
far beyond just economics. As well the fair provides unique
services that benefit the communities by efficiently
utilizing the fairgrounds for school functions, historical
reflections, community festivals and provides a site for the
chamber of commerce. These services differentiate the
Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair from other county fairs and it is
the reason that the fair has developed a close and
beneficial relationship with the local communities and has a
highly sought after reputation.
