The County Fair has been a turning point for many of our area’s talented vocal artists.  Performances are held on 2 different stages within the fairgrounds, with a different act each hour.  Music styles range from R & B to country to celtic.  The Dallas Island Stage, the fairs largest, is situated smack dab in the middle of concessions row and has plenty of picnic tables beneath a canopy of tall trees.  It makes for a wonderful afternoon picnic.
