A little history

Crow Fair is a community and family celebration of Apsaalooke (Crow) culture, with teepee camps, parades, traditional dances and storytelling that visitors of all ages can take part in.

The camp tradition dates back to 1904, when families began raising tipi camps around the grounds in the week before the Fair, a practice kept alive each year with tipi poles brought from the Pryor or Big Horn Mountains.
