EVENTS & ATTRACTIONS

Kevin Fowler & Aaron Watson: The name Kevin Fowler always means a full house and cheering crowds. Calling Kevin "country rock" sounds too tame. "Southern country" might be closer to the soul of his hybrid of Southern rock and country music. It's the preferred music of a new generation of country fans. And don't miss Aaron Watson. With an uncanny knack for mixing great songs and unforgettable performances, Watson has grown into an unstoppable force in Texas Music.

Honor Breast Cancer Survivors: Please proudly wear your Pink! The Guadalupe County Fair Association will be making a donation to Relay For Life of Guadalupe County for each person wearing Pink on Saturday, October 9.

Fair Parade: Downtown Seguin will be packed with people when the parade kicks off at 10am.

Trade Fair & Expo: Check out businesses and individuals selling & promoting their products.

Kids Corral/Playday Activities: Free activities for the whole family! Games, prizes, contests, arts & crafts...and much, much more.

Agriculture in Action: A Laboratory of Learning presented by Animal Specialties, including a farm animal petting zoo, cow milking, calves, chick hatching and poultry exhibits.
