The All New Broward County Fair features zany acts, carnival eats and dozens of exhibitors November 18 – December 5, 2021 at the Margate fairgrounds located at 1000 State Road 7. The event is sponsored by the City of Margate and the Margate Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) with more than 75 rides and attractions by Hildebrand Rides, Florida’s largest amusements provider.

“The City of Margate is thrilled to host the return of the Broward County Fair this year after a hiatus brought about by Covid-19. The Fair will offer rides, games, and everybody’s favorite foods in a safe, secure environment,” said Margate Mayor, Arlene Schwartz. “It’s going to be a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season.”

Fairgoers can expect funnel cakes, cotton candy, corndogs, and dozens of delicious carnival eats. Live animal exhibits and a focus on farming and agribusiness are all part of what Fair owner and operator, Harlan Bast, calls “Broward County’s biggest show all year.”

As the economy continues to recover from the effects of Covid-19, the Broward County Fair will bring a breath of fresh air to the local economy, said Margate Vice Mayor, Antonio Arserio.

“I am excited that Margate has landed this iconic South Florida event. The joy it will bring our children and positive economic impact for our businesses is a win-win for the city,” he said.

Gate tickets and all-day ride passes are available on Eventbrite.
