AURORA | Arapahoe County’s annual celebration of its High Plains roots returns this summer, bringing a four-day lineup of ag- and Western-themed entertainment to the county fairgrounds in southeast Aurora.
Rodeos, carnival rides, truck and tractor pulling, hog racing, fireworks and a 4-H livestock show are among the attractions lined up July 25-July 28.
“We are so excited to continue the tradition of the Arapahoe County Fair, dating back to 1906,” Commissioner Carrie Warren-Gully said in a news release. “We’ve added new attractions and events that are sure to be a hit with everyone in the family.”
Children under three feet tall will be admitted free, while general admission costs $25. The county’s 21-and-older Pours on the Plains craft beer festival will also take place July 26 at the fairgrounds, featuring local breweries and live music.
