The Fort Bragg Fair returns for another fun-filled week and a half to the installation’s fairgrounds, May 3-14.

“The Fort Bragg Fair is one of our largest events bringing together our service members, their
Families and the surrounding community,” said Col. John Wilcox, Fort Bragg garrison
Commander, in a press release. “We are always excited this time of the year when we get to share in the colorful fanfare of carnival rides, games, local entertainment, and nostalgic fried food concoctions.”

The public is invited to enjoy carnival rides, games, entertainment, food and more. The Fort Bragg Fair is open to guests Monday through Friday from 5 to 7 p.m. for their customer appreciation admission price of $11. Weekday admission after 7 p.m. is $16, and weekend admission is $21. Children shorter than 36 inches are free. The price of admission includes unlimited rides and entertainment.

On Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 14, all mothers will be admitted free with a paying child 36 inches or taller, up to the age of 17.

Parking is free and accessible off Bragg Boulevard to non-Department of Defense cardholders,
