South Country Fair returns July 16–18, 2027

South Country Fair is one of Southern Alberta's most beloved, community-rooted music and arts festivals. Held annually since 1987 along the banks of the Oldman River at the Fort Macleod Fish and Game Park in Fort Macleod, Alberta, it offers a peaceful, camping-style, family weekend experience.

Our vibrant, eclectic programming features a rich diversity of regional and international performers across multiple stages, showcasing everything from traditional folk, roots, and gritty blues to alt-country, spoken word poetry, and world rhythms.
