Even as many of Maine's businesses reopen, most of the state's fairs will not take place in 2020. If you've been to an agricultural fair, you'll understand when I say that there is no way to correctly socially distance while attending a fair.

However, some of Maine's fairs will be holding a modified version of their much-loved events.

According to the Topsham Fair Facebook page, they are bringing a little taste of the Topsham fair to us virtually through a video series and even a Facebook live. These videos will feature past and future entertainers, vendors, exhibitors, in such a creative way that you'll get the real deal fair feel.


 

 

A message from the Topsham Fair:

Our historic grandstands will sit empty this year for the first time since 1944...
