The Cambridge Fall Fair will return September 4–7, 2025, marking more than 180 years of community tradition at Dickson Park.
The four-day celebration will feature concerts, motorsports, carnival rides, a vendor marketplace, and a range of family-oriented activities.
Campbell’s Amusements will captivate visitors with thrilling rides and games. Inside the Dickson Centre, discover a variety of vendors offering crafts, services, and delightful food options. Over the weekend, enjoy main event live music performances and all-age shows spread across the park.
Music and Motorsports Lead the Lineup
The weekend promises both high-energy performances and high-octane action. On Friday, September 5, the fairgrounds will roar to life with the Impact Motorsports Demolition Derby, beginning at 7 p.m. Spectators are encouraged to arrive early, as seating areas fill quickly. Later that night, at 8:30 p.m., Junkyard Delight will perform on the main stage.

Family-Focused Activities
