The 2024 Boyle County Fair will be held from June 8 through June 15. The fair will be held in the same location as last year on Smoky Way off of the Danville Bypass. The fair will see the return of fan favorites such as the helicopter rides and a larger petting zoo.

Saturday before the fair begins, a community tractor ride will be held. Boyle Fair Board President Ryan Owens hopes it can become an annual tradition. Tractors will leave the fairgrounds at 10 a.m. and take a 20 mile ride throughout Danville. The ride will end at the fairgrounds around noon with lunch being served after.

Hopefully, we can start to do it every year,” Owens said. “People can bring their tractor from off the farm and ride through town.”

Pageants will go all day on Saturday, and the carnival will start on Tuesday and go through June 15.

To get a printed program for the fair, see the June 4 print edition of the Advocate-Messenger.
