Three County Fair — Local services in Northampton

This event was kind of a mess honestly.. 😳 we arrived with an Rv and not one of the event Workers knew where to park us after giving us attitude and horrible guidance and directions reactions we finally parked We all wentinto Attend the festival They kind of gave us a hassle about getting in with their bags Even if you have a weekend 3 day pass 3 day pass they tell you're not allowed to go in-and-out of the gates I want you to go in and you're not allowed to leave and return inside but that makes no sense if you have a 3 day pass anyways the events were rained Out what's just fully dampened the entire weekend's activities Method Man and Red Man Along with the other bigger names had a private VIP tent which was not spoken about or given an option to buy so some people got to attend that and not the others there are fireworks at the end of the event it was just kind of cool when I got some decent photos but on all the event was kind of a mess and I said I just hope next time they have better ideas of what they're supposed to be doing and how to be directing people Also it was allowed into the event with a knife that was definitely bigger than my hand and the man looked at me and said I'm not Worried about that.

Very nice fair. Great place for the family to go & spend a few hours or the day. They have plenty to see & do. Music, food, rides, demo derby, animals & much more!

Sometimes using the toilet takes awhile, that's life. Fortunately that was the only time anything like that had ever happened to us at this fair.
