Support Local Makers & Find Unique Goods at the Dodge County Fairgrounds this June

There is nothing quite like the thrill of the hunt. That feeling when you spot a gorgeous vintage piece, a beautifully made handmade craft, or a quirky collectible that you didn't even know you needed until right that second—it’s the ultimate weekend morning rush.

If you're ready for a day of discovery, mark your calendar! The Dodge County Flea Market and Craft Fair is returning on Saturday, June 20, from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM.


Whether you’re a seasoned picker, a lover of local crafts, or just looking for a fun Saturday morning outing with the family, here is everything you need to know about this upcoming event.


What to Expect: Treasures Galore

The fairgrounds will be buzzing with energy as local vendors set up shop. Because this event brings together both a flea market and a craft fair, the variety is incredible. You can expect to find:

  • Vintage & Antique Treasures: From retro home decor to old-school tools and memorabilia.
  • Handmade Crafts: Unique items created by talented local artisans and makers.
  • One-of-a-Kind Upcycled Creations: Give a second life to items with character.


Rain or Shine, We Shop!

Don't let a unpredictable forecast keep you home. The event is uniquely set up with both outdoor and indoor shopping spaces. If the weather is beautiful, you can stroll the open grounds; if the skies open up, you can head inside and keep hunting for bargains without getting drenched.

Best of all? This event is incredibly budget-friendly before you even buy your first item. Admission is 100% free, and parking won't cost you a dime.


Want to Clear Out Your Garage? Become a Vendor!

If you have a closet full of crafts you've been making, an antique stash you're ready to part with, or you just did some serious summer cleaning, why not turn it into cash?

The Dodge County Fairgrounds makes it incredibly easy and affordable to join as a seller:

  • Low Cost: Booth spaces are just $25, collected right on the day of the event.
  • Plenty of Room: Spaces are generous (roughly 20' x 20'). There are no strict tape lines—just a friendly community of sellers being respectful of each other's setups.
  • How to Apply: Because of Wisconsin state guidelines, you’ll just need to fill out a quick online application providing a seller number or stating an exemption.

There is no place quite like the Wisconsin summer festival circuit to experience the raw power of classic rock under the open sky, and this August, the ultimate live music tradition returns to the Moraine Park Main Stage. The Dodge County Fair Association is thrilled to announce that rock and roll icons George Thorogood and The Destroyers will perform on Saturday, August 22, 2026, at 8:00 PM. Fresh off a massive 2025 where they played nearly 90 explosive shows, were honored by the GRAMMY Museum, and saw George’s famed “Bad To The Bone” Gibson ES-125TDC guitar placed on permanent exhibit at The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the band is extending The Baddest Show on Earth Tour into 2026. With 53 years of “playing rock & roll hot enough to melt the polar icecaps,” Thorogood and his long-time bandmates—Jeff Simon, Bill Blough, Jim Suhler, and Buddy Leach—are bringing a “renewed taste for danger” to Beaver Dam. 50+ Years of Rock & Roll Party With more than 15 million albums sold and over 8,000 live shows performed, The Destroyers have earned their reputation as “The All-American rock & roll party band”. Fans can expect a “stage-shaking, roof-raising” setlist featuring the hits that made them cornerstones of Classic Rock:
