Livestock Buildings

The Boone County Fairgrounds has several livestock buildings that are great for many events.  Pens are not permanent in the livestock buildings, and therefore they are taken down when not in use.  All livestock buildings have large doors for ease of moving in and out trailers, equipment, etc.  These buildings are available for rent April - October.  Click the events tab above to check the availability of renting the livestock buildings.
