The Weld County Fair began in 1918 and has become a proud and long-standing tradition of Weld County. Together, we represent these traditions and values in our community by attending events to encourage all to come and be a part of the Weld County Fair. The royalty program is an integral part of the fair experience, and we are happy you are wanting to join us in the experience.  Applicants must be between the ages of 12-18 as of December 31st of the reigning year.

Do you like meeting new people?  Do you want your leadership skills to improve?  Do you like to experience new adventures?  Do you like new clothes?  Do you like to be in parades?  Do you like to inform people about the Weld County Fair?  If you said yes to any of these questions, then you should consider becoming part of the Weld County Fair Royalty.  The application is due by July 8, 2025, by 5:00 p.m. in the Weld County Extension Office.
