Reenergized and Ready: A Passionate Team Powers Super Fair 2025

LINCOLN, NE — The countdown is on for the 2025 Lancaster County Super Fair, returning July 31 through August 9 at the Sandhills Global Event Center—and this year, it’s arriving with a brand-new look, a passionate new team, and a re-energized vision for summer fun in Lancaster County.

“Our team has been all-in on giving the Super Fair a fresh twist—it’s bigger, brighter, and better than ever!” said Gina Nathan, Marketing Manager. “From our new website to several new attractions—this year’s Super Fair is supercharged.”

“We’ve worked nonstop to make this the most exciting, easy-to-navigate fair yet. We can’t wait to share what we’ve built with our community.” said Sara Juengel, Super Fair Coordinator. “I think we will have new traditions that will stick around for years to come!”

A Smarter Way to Plan Your Visit

One of the most exciting parts of this year’s fair refresh is a fully redesigned website: SuperFair.org. The site now features an interactive map, event calendar, and searchable schedule—making it easier than ever for guests to build a personalized fair experience from their phone or desktop.

The site also reflects the fair’s vibrant new branding, designed to bring clarity and color to everything this 10-day celebration has to offer.

The Heart of the Fair: 4-H, FFA & Open Class Exhibits

The first four days of the Super Fair (July 31–August 3) spotlight the heart of Nebraska’s agricultural and creative communities. Fairgoers can check out live animal shows, handmade projects, and competitions representing hundreds of 4-H, FFA, and Open Class entries.

From livestock and rabbits to photography, baking, gardening, fine arts and more—this is the best window to see local talent and youth leadership in action.

Attractions, Music & Food—Bigger Than Ever

Fairgoers can look forward to:

• Can’t miss new attractions, including dock-diving dogs, a mechanical bull, rock climbing walls, wildlife encounters, and an indoor pickleball beer garden

• 10 nights of free live music, ranging from country and funk to classic rock and alternative—every night on the Spectrum Music Stage

• Expanded Attraction Zone with interactive family experiences open daily
