HARVEST FAIR at the Draft Horse Classic:
In between the Draft Horse performances, the Harvest Fair is bustling with activity. The Harvest Fair is an experience that can be enjoyed by kids and adults – and admission is free! Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the barns and meet the horses, taste the delicious Treat Street goodies, or sit and enjoy the live entertainment. With so much to see and do, there’s a little something for everyone at the Harvest Fair. Activities are on-going at the Fairgrounds during the Classic:
- Art at the Classic
- Live Bluegrass and Western Music Fest
- Western Trade Show
- Treat Street Goodies
- Clogging Jamboree
Workshops and performances
- Visit the Barns
Be sure to visit the barns during your visit to the Classic. The barns are open throughout the event in between performances. However, they become “back stage” during performances and for safety purposes are closed when the horses are heading back and forth to the arena shows. Two guided barn tours are also offered:
