MACKEYVILLE — It might be the dead of winter, but the Clinton County Fair Association is already finalizing a fantastic summertime line-up of entertainment for this year’s Clinton County Fair.

The 52nd Fair is scheduled to run from Saturday, July 26 through Saturday, Aug. 2, at the Fairgrounds in Mackeyville, and the variety of bands, entertainers and special events planned promises something for everyone!

The musical line-up ranges from rock-and-roll and classic rock, to country, jazz and swing, and soul. Also on the schedule is a motorcycle thrill show, dirt drag racing, bull riding, and special Figure 8 and demolition derby events.

A tribute to the legendary band, the Eagles, will headline this year’s Fair. The Nashville-based ‘7 Bridges, The Ultimate Eagles Experience,’ will take to the Main Stage the evening of Saturday, August 2, to recreate the experience of an Eagles concert.

Other entertainers include Country music up-and-comers Jack and Davis Reid, grandchildren of Country greats, the Statler Brothers, who are scheduled to perform the evening of Monday, July 28.

Fair Managers Barb Forshey and Donna Wech say the variety of entertainment is intentional.

“We try to plan a variety of entertainment — shows that are good for all ages,” says Forshey. “We also schedule performances that coincide with the Fair’s daily themes. For example, Tuesday (July 29) is Senior Citizens Day at the Fair, so our entertainment that day is geared toward something they’ll enjoy.”

In addition to the music, special Figure 8 and Demolition Derby events are scheduled to open the Fair on Saturday, July 26.

The Fearless Flores thrill show will serve as the Grounds Act at this year’s Fair. The motorcycle show will take place twice daily and is scheduled three times on Kiddies Day (Wednesday, July 30) and on Saturday, August 2, the final day of Fair Week.
