The Annual Whiteside County Fair runs Tuesday, August 12, through Saturday, August 16, 2025. Display your Antique Tractor at the Whiteside County Fair. Pre-registration is recommended and can be done by contacting Ron Shank at 815-772-7157.

Each participant will receive a 154th Whiteside County Fair plaque to display on their antique tractor. Exhibitors will fire up their engines for the parade about one hour before the start of that evening’s Truck and Tractor Pulls, at 6:30 p.m., on Friday, August 15.

Anyone displaying their Antique Farm Tractor at the 2025 Whiteside County Fair will be required to purchase a Season Membership Pass, which will automatically enter them into the exhibition. Due to space constraints, the display will be limited to “restored or good original” tractors.

The Fair also welcomes for display, hit-and-miss engines that are in working order. No garden tractors or implements are allowed, unless the implements are mounted to the tractor.
