What to Expect at the Washington Parish Free Fair

The 2026 Fair Parade begins at 10:00 AM on Wednesday, October 21, traveling through Franklinton before ending at the fairgrounds. WPFA

Mile Branch Settlement gives visitors a look at local history through historic cabins, blacksmith demonstrations, corn grinding, quilting, hand weaving, cooking, music, and other traditional activities during Fair Week. WPFA
