Spring has just arrived, but New Jersey is already heating things up. And what better time to start planning for summer fun than right now?

Especially after how cold it's been this past winter, most of us in the Garden State cannot wait to get back to that summer fun we're known for. New Jersey might be small, but it's jam-packed with outdoor activities during the warmer months.

One such activity is the numerous fairs. More specifically, our great New Jersey County Fairs.

New Jersey's complete summer schedule is officially here for 2025, and it's looking bigger than ever. The only bigger question that probably needs to be answered is this.

Will your local county fair be returning for 2025? Yes, some changes are happening this year. But by and large, most of them will still offer the same kind of family fun that those in New Jersey have come to expect.

And of course, some new attractions are also part of the mix. In fact, that's probably one of the most exciting parts of looking forward to a new year.

What new rides will I see at the fair? Will there be a new attraction? It's almost a guarantee that something new will be making an appearance.

One big thing to note, however, is the dates. Almost every county has had some slight adjustments in when they're occurring, with some having bigger adjustments than one might have expected.

Regardless, summer fun is on the horizon in New Jersey, and our great county fairs are sure to deliver on that promise. With that said, here's a look at the entire 2025 county fair schedule.
