Security and even our hometown sheriff and deputies walking on site. Food stands run by our local fire companies, churches, food banks, and non-profit organizations, as well as diverse, popular concessions are within eyesight of our paved walkways from almost everywhere. The entertainment on the Main Stage, at our Band Shell, in our Free Show Area, and Agricultural Educational Arena is absolutely free. Come see local groups and clubs proudly showcasing their talents, as well as acts from all over Pennsylvania, engaging the crowds. The West End Fair's Main Arena is primarily reserved for large shows with large bleacher seating. Additional ticketing is required for some shows.
