It’s almost time for nine days of fun at the annual Georgia Mountain Fair in Hiawassee, Aug. 16-24.
Test your skills with the Midway games, your daring on the thrilling rides and your appetite with yummy fair food like tacos and funnel cakes. Enjoy live music performances at Anderson Music Hall, arts and crafts vendors, frisbee-catching dogs and chainsaw carving at The Bear Factory.
Learn what life was like in the pre-tech era with demonstrations at the Pioneer Village that include moonshine making, black smithing, pork skin frying and quilting.
Admission for the fair is $7; free for children under 12.
