Planning a summer trip or staycation? Find summer fairs and festivals in your area – a free resource for staycations and car trips.
I found a fun, free website called Fairs and Festivals and they list summer fairs and festivals happening all across our 50 states. You can find state fairs, county fairs, car shows, food festivals, arts and crafts shows and even farmers markets.
Use the calendar feature on the home page of Fairs and Festivals to sort by date and location. This is a great tool to use when you are on vacation and looking for a fun activity that can be budget-friendly.
