The Abbotsford Agrifair—The Best Little Country Fair on Earth!
The Abbotsford Agrifair is more than “the best little country fair on Earth”. It’s Abbotsford’s only event offering such a huge variety of entertainment and education in one location over three days – August 4th to 6th, 2017.
The Canada 150 celebrations are far from over in this wonderful city that is the jewel of the Fraser Valley and only an hour’s drive from downtown Vancouver. Agrifair will once again bridge the gap from city to country and from generation to generation.
All for a very affordable price!
PLUS… the Agrifair has hitched its wagon to a Shooting Star for the second year in a row. All of us at Shooting Star Amusements are THRILLED to be back again for this annual 3-day action-packed country bash. We were such a smash hit last year, we’re licking our chops for the 2017 celebrations!
