The public 4-H Fashion Revue will take place at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, August 9, 2022 and ribbons will be given out at the conclusion of the show.

For 71 years, friends, families, Colorado natives, and visitors have all converged upon Durango for a celebration of hard work and hobby. People of all ages showcase their animals, food, garden products, and personal creations to compete for the coveted blue ribbon.
This festival, happening Wednesday Sunday, August 10th 14th, 2022, is one of Colorados best ways to enjoy good, old-fashioned mountain fun. Like all state fairs, visitors will experience livestock competitions, homemade food competitions, 4-H project displays, and garden variety events. For Vendor and Concession Vendor Contracts, please go to La Plata County Fair Website.
