50 Years of the Pear Fair in Courtland

pear fair

Mark your calendars and get ready for a delightful summer weekend because the Pear Fair is back in Courtland! On Sunday, July 28th, 2024, the Sacramento River Delta town will host the 50th Pear Fair, a milestone that promises to be the best yet. But wait, there’s more! This year, there’s a special Pre-Pear Concert on Saturday, July 27th, to kick off the celebrations.

The Pear Fair has been a cherished Delta tradition since 1972, making it the largest and longest-running agricultural fair of its kind in Northern California. It’s a fantastic event that brings together locals and visitors alike to celebrate all things pear-related.

Pre-Pear Concert
Saturday’s Pre-Pear Concert is set to run from 2 PM to 7 PM, offering a lively start to the weekend festivities. There’s no better way to get into the fair spirit than enjoying great music in a beautiful setting.

Sunday’s Pear Fair
On Sunday, the Pear Fair will open its gates from 9 AM to 6 PM. There’s something for everyone, from delicious pear treats and beverages to crafts, games, and live entertainment. It’s a family-friendly event, ensuring fun for all ages.

Entry and Parking Details
Good news – there’s no cost to enter the fair! However, there is a $20 per car parking fee, which benefits the local Fire Department and provides scholarships for local high school students. Please note that this is a cash-only fee on-site, but you can pre-order parking and other items via the Eventbrite page.

Important Notes
For everyone’s comfort and safety, please remember that dogs are not allowed, except for service animals. This helps us comply with health department standards and ensures a safe environment for all attendees. Given the typically high temperatures, we kindly ask those with dogs to refrain from bringing them along.

We missed you in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 health crisis, but we were thrilled to return with a successful fair in 2022. Now, as we celebrate the 50th Pear Fair, we are more excited than ever to continue this beloved Delta tradition. A big thank you to the amazing volunteers who make this event possible year after year!

Come join us for a weekend filled with fun, community spirit, and, of course, lots of pears. We can’t wait to see you there!
