Big Knob Grange Fair 2023

Check out the famed truck and tractor pulls, livestock, and family-friendly entertainment at the fairground

Dates: August 29–September 2, 2023

Big Knob Grange Fair is an annual occasion, running in Rochester, New Sewickley Township, Pennsylvania, over five days in late August and early September. The mixed program of the fair embraces agricultural exhibits, livestock, midway rides, live music, food and commercial vendors, and children's activities. But the main crowd-pleasers must be truck pulls, tractor pulls, and a demolition derby.

The Big Knob Fair was established in 1943, and since then, it has grown into one of the favorite local festivals, drawing tens of thousands of visitors. You can join the crowds and experience the joys of the fair from Tuesday to Friday, 4 pm to 11 pm, and Saturday, noon to 11 pm.
