The History of Fall Fairs in Halton Hills
Halton Hills is steeped in a deep history of agriculture; our local Fall Fairs have celebrated this connection for 175 years. The First Georgetown Fall fair was hosted in 1846 by the newly established Esquesing Agricultural Society (Later to be renamed the Georgetown Agricultural Society). The early fairs were not so different from those of today, featuring cattle shows, baked goods, and children’s activities. In fact, the midway entered the fair in the 1950’s followed by the infamous demolition derby in the 1990’s. Acton’s first fair was in 1913 and has since become the “Best Small Fair in Ontario”.
