Agassiz Fall Fair
In 2025 the Agassiz Fall Fair runs on Friday, September 12th, and Saturday, September 13th. The fair happens indoors at the Agricultural Hall at 6800 Pioneer Avenue. Festivities also take place outside at the fairgrounds next door. Both locations are just a few blocks west of the main part of the small town of Agassiz.
Agassiz is a small agricultural community in the Municipality of Kent in the Eastern Fraser Valley. It’s about 25 kilometres northeast of Chilliwack, eight kilometres south of Harrison Hot Springs and close to 125 kilometres east of Vancouver.
About the Fall Fair
Hosted by the Agassiz Agricultural and Horticultural Association, the Agassiz Fall Fair and Corn Festival features a carnival midway and various agricultural-related activities. Although now combined into one event, in 2025 the Fall Fair will be celebrating its 121st year and the Corn Festival will be celebrating its 77th year.

This year, admission to the fairgrounds at the Agassiz Fall Fair and Corn Festival is free on the Friday. However, admission to the Exhibit Hall is $3 for people ages 12 and older.
On the Saturday, admission to the fairgrounds is $10 for adults at the gate. Children ages 6 to 11 cost $5 and little ones ages 5 and under have free admission. Adults can save $2 on their tickets when purchased in advance online.

Parking and Shuttle Service
Parking in the area at the fair is free, but spaces are limited.
In previous years there has sometimes been a free shuttle service. When available, rides are offered to and from three different churches in the town that have more parking.
In past years shuttle pick-up and drop-off were available at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church at 7237 Morrow Road, the Agassiz Christian Reformed Church at 7452 Morrow Road, and Agassiz United Church at 6860 Lougheed Highway.
Details about the shuttle service for the fair in 2025 are to be confirmed.
Fall Fair Activities
The Agassiz Fall Fair and Corn Festival is a small event but includes an impressive selection of things to see and do.
Fair Midway
The midway happens on all days of the festival and features a typical selection of rides that go up and down, round and round and even right up and over. There aren’t a lot of rides, but a reasonable number and enough of a selection that there’s something for everyone.
The midway is usually open from 4:00 pm to 10:00 pm on the Friday and from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm on the Saturday. Exact hours for 2025 are to be confirmed and are subject to change.
Saturday Activities
Activities usually include a small parade, 4H horse show, dog show, live music, corn husking and logging shows. There is also often a Kids’ Zone with pony rides, mini golf, bouncy castles and other child-friendly activities.
Also on the Saturday in previous years there was typically live entertainment, the crowning of the “Corn King and Queen,” and the showing and/or judging of poultry, donkeys, sheep, llamas, goats and horses. 2025 details are to be confirmed.
