What Happened at the 2025 Twin Falls County Fair and Rodeo

The Twin Falls County Fair for 2025 has come and gone, leaving us with lifelong memories of rodeo events, massive monster trucks, music, blue ribbon farm animals, food, and fun with family and friends.

Some are probably still feeling the stomach aches from overeating delicious deep-fried foods, the headaches from all the spinning rides, and the pain in their feet from walking all over the fairgrounds. But that's the cost of going to the fair and having a fun time over Labor Day weekend, and it was worth it for the memories created at the Twin Falls County Fair.

The rides are a big attraction at the fair each year, and there was a variety of rides to enjoy, which is what most people anticipate and want. Depending on your age, height, and desire for adrenaline, you could pick from slow rides, spinning rides, rides that flip you upside down, skill games, and fun houses.

Not every ride is meant for everyone, and not everyone who went to the fair was looking for carnival rides, but there was definitely a good variety for everyone who went hoping for theme-park-style fun.

The food is a major selling point for any fair, and there were plenty of options this year. Yes, there were a couple of notable absences, but overall, everything you could want at the fair was readily available.

The Twin Falls County Fair is well known for bringing in great musical acts and presenting three nights of awesome rodeo action, but there are people who attend just to sample the fair food options. This year, the fair featured delicious creations like corn dogs, ice cream, fried Oreos, fried jelly beans, fried PBJ, caramel apples, kettle corn, donuts, chicken, donut burgers, waffle sandwiches, nachos, and fajitas.

One of the new additions to this year's fair was the pig races, and it is safe to say that many fairgoers enjoyed them. It was entertaining to hear their names, watch them run, and it was great to sit and take a break.

It's probably a really good thing that dogs aren't allowed at the fair because they would have gone crazy (crazier than my kids acted and they were pretty bonkers) watching the pig races.

There are many animals at the fair to enjoy, such as bunnies, chickens, turkeys, cows, bulls, horses, sheep, goats, pigs, and more. Many enjoy walking through and checking them out up close, and for those that don't interact with these types of animals regularly, it is enjoyable to pet and feed some of them or to ask questions to their handlers.
