Tractor rides, petting zoo, lumberjack show entertain visitors Saturday at the Lake County Fair

On an overcast Saturday with light rain, the Lake County Fairgrounds and Event Center in Grayslake was filled with families that still came out to enjoy activities, exhibits, rides and performances of the Lake County Fair.

On the fourth day of the five-day fair, attendees browsed the offerings of vendors selling jewelry, clothing and food. They could also take in performances from musical groups, such as Peter and the Versatiles, and check out the petting zoo, tractor rides, midway rides, games and contests.

The fair continues from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday, with highlights including a Pro Bull Riding and Barrel Racing show at 3 p.m. Visit lcfair.com/2025 for details.
