The 2020 Fayette County Fair has been canceled.

The Fayette County Fair Association issued a release that they have called off the fair, which had been slated for July 11-17 at Brownstown. The statement indicated the Association's "main concern is the health and safety of those who participate and attend the annual county fair."

As to the Illinois and DuQuoin State Fairs, Illinois Department of Agriculture Director Jerry Costello said the decision on whether to hold the fairs this year will likely be made by the middle of this month.
