If you grew up in Southeastern Massachusetts (like me), it’s that time of year again. Time for the Marshfield Fair that is! Growing up, my siblings and I looked forward to the fair returning at the end of every August. The 151st Marshfield Fair is here NOW through August 26th. If you’re local and you’ve never been, you are truly missing out on a fun experience. The fair blends carnival rides, live music, animal demonstrations, a demolition derby and more.
There really is something for everyone at the Marshfield Fair. While we were there we enjoyed seeing truck pulling, a magic show, a blacksmith demonstration and walking through the petting zoo. Oh, and of course my boys loved riding the rides. There is a lot going on at any given time at the Marshfield Fair and they also have some fun specials coming up.

I’ve always loved the fair! Ours was always in September and my friends and it was always such a big deal. I still love the fair and especially the food!
That looks like so much fun! My family goes to ever fair and fest that comes to our area, and we always have so much fun. I’d love to take them to Marshfield.
State Fairs are a favorite of our family! There is so much fun to be had and OH the food you can eat! I am all for fried Twinkies! LOL
These are one of the things that makes the summer great. I wish we had one where I live.
The last of our locals fairs are coming up. Something we always enjoy as a family.
It really seems like summer when you can take your kids to a fair like this. A few rides a great snack this looks like the way to spend a warm summer day or evening.
Can’t wait for the fair! I am looking forward to seeing what foodie treats they have in store for us this year. It’s always something new and tasty.
This looks like such a fun fair to attend. It would be perfect for my family. Thanks for sharing!
How fun!! We live down in Maryland and always enjoy our county fair. Great food and fun rides! Looks like Marshfield has the same!
I love a good fair! I am all about the rides, cotton candy and regional food favorites! This fair looks like fun!
How fun! We love fairs. I mostly go for the food. I love to try all the new fried stuff out. Sadly, the Texas State Fair is pretty far from us, so we can’t go. But when we lived in Oklahoma, we went to that one every year.
I love fairs. In the city we just moved from they have the CNE. It’s a country wide fair that is also the same fair as the Calgary Stampede. I’d love to go to this fair too!
Oh how I love Fairs. This looks like such a fun time. I would love to go to this fair, and i know my kids would too!
I always loved taking my kids to the fair. They always had a blast riding the rides and seeing what booths there were.
The bunnies are so cute! My kids went to a fair yesterday with their friends. This Fair looks like a ton of fun.
Wow. I love going to fairs. This one looks like it has some cool rides and activities for the kids. And the bunnies are adorable!
I like going to the county fairs by us. Our county is so unique because it has both urban and very rural, so it can be a total change up.
I love to go to the fair!! I have one question though, how’d your boys get so grown so fast!!! Your oldest def. looks like a young man. 🙂 Handsome boys, awesome fair!
I absolutely love going to the fair as there is plenty of fun stuff to do. This would be a great place to go if you guys want to have an amazing and fun time.
I like the fact that admission is not too expensive! It would be so fun to take my entire family and just have a good time.
It is awesome that you’re sharing the different events that they have for different age groups! I love that they’re doing that as well, so there really is something for everyone to enjoy! Not to mention the place already looks so much fun as it is!
I miss New England fairs so much! Especially the fall ones, thinking about taking a trip back next month just to apple pick and go to Topsfield lol! This fair looks like so much fun too!
Can’t miss a fair this good! You can look forward to loads of events and fun times here and it’s totally worth going to with the whole family! I love that you posted all the dates to remember!
Thats so cool its fair season in your home town. I think I will leave the fair rides to the kiddies they all spin and make you sick my stomach cant do it lol but I love funnel cake!
I loved going to the fair as a kid! We live in NYC now, so “fairs” aren’t quite the same!
I’m counting the minutes until our local fair. I can’t wait! It’s our favorite place to be.
We love going to the fair with our kids! Looks like you guys had a blast!
