Western New York Lawn Fete Guide — Summer 2026

It is almost lawn fete season across Western New York and we are ready for all of the fun, rides, games, music and beer tents.

Western New York has some of the most fun carnivals and lawn fetes on the East Coast. After all, a lot of other cities have never even heard of a lawn fete--if you were to say to them you were going to a lawn fete they may be confused.

Here is the schedule for all of the lawn fetes, fairs and festivals in Western New York from the Catt County Fair to the South Line Bash and everything in between. If there is a fair or festival that you are apart of whether it be for a church, school or anything big or small we would love to include it on the list below.
