“Who doesn’t love a fair in the crisp fall weather? The sights, sounds and smells of the midway, like the Ferris Wheel and Gravitron, elephant ears and corn dogs, cotton candy and more, are pinnacle parts of a family fun day,” said Olivet College Director of Alumni Engagement Samantha Pearl. “We’re excited to host the inaugural community fair at the Festival Grounds on Olivet College’s campus. The surrounding communities are supporters, neighbors, families and friends of the College, and we look forward to sharing this fall event with everyone.”

The fair also includes music, a photo booth, and comfort and convenience amenities like ATMs, restrooms, first aid, potable water and a private area for nursing mothers.

All entertainment and dining options at the fair are available for purchase with universal tickets. Tickets will be available for $1.25 apiece at several convenient locations at the Festival Grounds.
