Everybody loves a fair! The Larimer County Fair is one of Colorado’s longest‑running fairs, founded in the 1870s. The 2025 fair marks its 142nd edition. The fair, typically held around the 1st of August, offers a rare blend of agricultural tradition, family fun, and modern entertainment — all with free admission. I drove to The Ranch Events Complex as the sun was setting to be able to capture the lights and activities.
The photos on this page were taken with a Sony A1 camera and a Tamron 35-150mm lens over a sturdy tripod.
