All Applications Now Open for the 82nd Waterford Fair!
It’s that time of year again. Even as the winter chill lingers, our thoughts are already turning toward October—to the sound of laughter as families enjoy the Landmark, the vibrant colors in the Fine Art barn, old-time music on the main stage, and the incredible talent that fills every corner of our historic village during the Fair.
The 82nd Annual Waterford Fair is officially beginning its application process for all of the Fair venues, and we are looking for the makers, bakers, speakers, living historians, artists, chefs, and more, who make this event the quintessential Loudoun County fall festival.
Whether you’ve been with us for decades or you’re a new artisan looking for your first home in the village, we want to see what you’re creating. The Fair isn’t just about selling; it’s about the preservation of craft and the community that grows around it.
Because the Fair is such a diverse tapestry, our application process is handled specifically by venue. Please note that application deadlines vary depending on where you fit within the Fair.
To find the specific deadline and requirements for your area, please visit our Exhibitor Information Page.
Each year, we are humbled by the incredible quality of what is shared here, from masterfully crafted heritage goods and fine art to the local harvests and culinary treats that define our region. It is your collective talent and hard work that allow the Waterford Foundation to continue its mission of preservation and education. We can’t wait to see what the 82nd year brings to our tables, tents, and barns!
