Fair History
The origin of the Fairgrounds starts with a farm! While the Montgomery County Fairgrounds continues to recognize the contributions of agriculture and provide a lasting green space for the enjoyment of all residents of the County and the City of Dayton, one of the fairgrounds’ neighbors has its roots in farming as well.
The University of Dayton started 160 years ago with the purchase of a farm and now, sitting along Stewart Street, from the Miami River to historic Woodland Cemetery, UD has become one of the leading universities and Catholic institutions in the United States.
The Montgomery County Fairgrounds is proud to be neighbors to such a fine leader in higher education.
The Montgomery County Fair is located at 645 Infirmary Road, Dayton, OH 45417.
