The Elroy Fair kicked off the Wisconsin fair season in June.
The Elroy Fair is a district fair, not a county fair, and includes entries from citizens of Juneau County and anyone living in or in a youth organization in the Norwalk/Ontario/Wilton, Hillsboro, Royall, Wonewoc-Center, Necedah, Mauston, and New Lisbon school districts.
The open-class dog, rabbit, and poultry shows are open to anyone living in Wisconsin.
The following is the list of champions and department winners for the Elroy Fair, which was the first fair in Wisconsin and was from June 27–30.
