The South Florida Fair will be replaced by a smaller Mini Fair in January.
Organizers had already planned to scale back the activities typically seen at the fair due to the pandemic, but have now decided to get rid of even more of the usual fare.
There will be no rides for adults, just a kiddie rides section and no indoor activities. But the fair will still run more than two weeks, from January 15th through the 31st.
Here is the official announcement from the South Florida Fair:
The traditional 2021 South Florida Fair is now being canceled but the good news is that organizers are replacing it with a South Florida “Mini” Fair, which will be presented outdoors at the fairgrounds, 9067 Southern Blvd. during the original fair dates of January 15-31. In essence, this newly planned mini fair is a scaled back version of the annual South Florida Fair and will still feature many of the fair’s favorite activities.

“This decision came about due to growing concerns about the safety of our guests during this pandemic,” said Vicki Chouris, the fair’s president & CEO. “Hosting a scaled back, outdoor version of our traditional fair will still allow fairgoers to enjoy a fun-filled event. Mini but mighty with maximum fun is what we plan to present!”
The big changes for 2021 – the elimination of the big rides and the closing of buildings.
The fair, one of Palm Beach County s largest events, will still be held Jan. 15-31 and feature many of the fair s signature activities – a variety of local and tribute bands, the usual fried-everything fair foods and beverages, shopping opportunities with vendors under a large tent, racing pigs, a giant sand sculpture, strolling entertainers, farm animals and visiting the historic buildings of Yesteryear Village.
Only kiddie rides will be offered. Other rides are being eliminated because of the large crowds that they typically attract to the grounds. No indoor activities will be held.
