(Atlantic) On Thursday, July 24, 2025, the Atlantic Area Chamber Ambassadors visited the Cass County Fair to celebrate the opening day. During their visit, they heard from several fair board members about all the exciting activities planned for this year’s event.
The annual Cass County Fair is a major draw for Atlantic and the surrounding communities, and it remains the only fully free county fair in Iowa; the only cost is for food. A highlight of this year’s schedule is the annual bull ride, which will be followed by an all-new fireworks show and a concert by Steven Bankey & the Flatland Band at the Grandstand.
Sunday will feature a full day of entertainment, including the Strong and Amazing Ariel Stunt Show, where performers will showcase their incredible skills. In addition to these headline events, fairgoers can enjoy daily attractions such as 4-H and FFA exhibits, livestock contests, tractor pulls, and much more.
The Cass County Fair runs from Thursday, July 24, through Tuesday, July 29, at the Cass County Fairgrounds (1000 Fair Ave., Atlantic, IA 50022). For daily food specials, event schedules, and updates, visit casscofairia.com or follow Cass County Fair – Iowa on Facebook.
