One of the largest, and most loved social events in the city of Cumming and Forsyth County, starts today.
The family-friendly festivities, which begin this afternoon at 4:00 PM, will extend through the next 11 days at the Cumming Fairgrounds on Castleberry Road.
The Fair, which offers a variety of entertainment, rides, food and other attractions, is the largest and longest running event in Cumming. Last year the fair drew almost 125,000 people to the city and there is hope for an even higher attendance this year.
Musical entertainment will kick off with Marty Stuart & His Fabulous Superlatives at 8:30 p.m. on Friday, October 7th followed by Joe Nichols at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, October 11th and the Charlie Daniels’ Band at 8 p.m. on Thursday, October 13th.
In accordance with Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta being one of this years major sponsors, Fair coordinators promise even more activities for the children than usual. One of the featured acts sponsored by Children’s HCOA will be the Marvel Comics superhero show at 6 and 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, October 12th, as well as free admission that night.
Another new attraction to the fair this year will be the American Bull Riders Tour competition which is to be held at 8 p.m. on Saturday, October 15th and 6 p.m. on Sunday, October 16th.
The fair has been, and likely will be a family favorite for most ForsythCounty residents and visitors for years to come.
