Free Daily Entertainment At This Year’s Fair

This year, the Richland County Fair will have new and exciting free entertainment for people of all ages to enjoy.

Jeff Martin

Jeff Martin-the blond, curly-haired magician- has opened for: Smashmouth, Rush, Ty England, Restless Heart, Bellamy Bros, Herb Jeffries, and was. MC for: Pirates of the Mississippi. He’s one of only about two thousand ‘full-time’ professional magicians. Where he shines is in his ability to make people of ALL ages smile, laugh, giggle and simply marvel at the wonders of comedy magic with all of its production, misdirection, bunnies and doves, and antics that make a quality show entertaining. With his wife, Pam at his side and working behind the scenes, they now spend the better part of 6 months annually traveling this beautiful land we call the USA, bringing smiles and laughs to many hearts.  “That’s why we do it!!” they both say.  “We love to make people laugh! 

John Dunnigan

If Jimmy Buffett, James Taylor and John Prine were joined together in some bizarre musical cloning experiment, the outcome would be John Dunnigan. This “offbeat” musician and entertainer took the backroads to Montana over three decades ago and never left (he’s no fool). His original, often hilarious songs make you think, laugh, sing along and raise your glass in a toast to life. In short, he can put a smile on your face with songs like “I Don’t Touch, I Just Look” and “I’m Too White To Sing Reggae.” John has raised a lot of roofs with his spirited, crowd-pleasing music. He’s been fortunate to play music for a living almost his entire life. Pick any stringed instrument and odds are he can pick it - guitar, banjo, pedal steel. He also blows a mean harp. During his career, John has played with Bonnie Raitt, Asleep at the Wheel, Norton Buffalo, The Dirt Band, Kris Kristofferson and many others including Bruce Springsteen.

Action Entertainment Nascar RC Racing & Free Sports Zone

Action Entertainment enjoys working in the fair market. After attending several fair conventions; they found that almost every fair was struggling to find entertainment to draw in the younger generation. They set out to meet that need by creating a package that covers a wide audience. Their package is designed to please children and teenagers; yet the adults enjoy it just as much. An attractive 25’ inflatable archway acts as an entrance to their area. Everything that they provide to the fair goer is FREE of charge.
