Fair Queen
Big Knob Grange Fair is happy to announce the return of the Fair Queen program!!
It has been a while since we had a Fair Queen program and it’s time for a comeback! The Fair Queen program is to promote a greater understanding and awareness of agriculture and its importance to Pennsylvania. It’s a great opportunity for a young lady to take on a leadership role and serve as a very important advocate, educator, and role model to the younger generation.
The 2024 fair queen will compete for the 2025 Pennsylvania State Fair Queen in January at the annual PA Fair convention in Hershey, PA. Any, female between the ages of 16-20 who has an interest/love for the fair, agriculture, or both should fill out the application. Click the links to the left for more info and to fill out the application. Applications must be submitted by July 10, 2024. We will be hosting the applicants interviews on July 20th
The Queen will be crowned on the Outdoor Stage during Opening Ceremonies, August 27th at 6 pm.
