There will be no Erie County Fair this summer. The fair, which had been scheduled for August, will not be held because of the pandemic, organizers announced Wednesday. The fair was to be held Aug. 12 through 23.

“Although our board and staff share a feeling of profound disappointment in making the announcement to cancel the 2020 Erie County Fair, it has become clear that cancelling is the responsible choice for the Fair to do its part to support community health and safety, and to minimize the spread of COVID 19,” Jessica Underberg, fair manager and CEO of the Erie County Agricultural Society, said in a news release.
