The Logan County Fair will return to Lincoln next week for its 90th year, bringing fair events, pageants, grandstand entertainment and a Saturday night country concert to the Logan County Fairgrounds.


The fair is scheduled for Sunday, August 2, through Sunday, August 9, at the Logan County Fairgrounds in Lincoln. The fair association says this year marks the 90th Logan County Fair and invites visitors to enjoy a wide variety of events throughout the week.


The posted schedule highlights several major events, with more daily details still listed as coming soon on the fair website. Gate admission is listed as free until 2 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and until noon Saturday and Sunday. The 2026 Logan County Fair Queen Pageant is scheduled for Tuesday, August 4, at 6:30 p.m. in the grandstands.


The biggest music event of the week is scheduled for Saturday, August 8, when Lauren Alaina headlines Music Night with opening act Josh Ross. The concert begins at 7:30 p.m., and the ticketing page lists gates opening at 6 p.m. with general seating at $40 and pit tickets at $50. Alaina brings national name recognition to the fair, with the Grand Ole Opry noting chart-topping hits including “Road Less Traveled,” “What Ifs” with Kane Brown and “ONE BEER” with HARDY and Devin Dawson. Ross adds another current country voice to the lineup. His official site describes him as a Canada-born, Nashville-based artist whose debut EP Complicated won a 2025 JUNO Award for Country Album of the Year and included the hit “Trouble.”


The Logan County Fairgrounds are located in Lincoln. Fair officials say event and weather-related updates will be shared through the fair’s Facebook page, with additional schedule information available through the Logan County Fair website.
