Summer in our family means lots of outdoor fun! From family picnics and fishing to catching fireflies, there's always something to do. Our favorite Family Summer Tradition, however, is to attend every town carnival and fair in York County! There's just something about the smell of cotton candy, the rides, the sound of the bands playing in the background, the food, and the bright lights of the fireworks that always takes me back to my childhood.
Summer Carnivals and Fairs are also used to help raise funds for many of our local Fire Companies and Community Groups. Which means there is no shortage of carnivals to pick from!
To help you find all the info for all the local Carnivals/Street Fair we've compiled the list below! We hope that your family will be able to enjoy all of them!
