Ontario’s "legendairy" pop-up is back in the capital for its third year with a countrified twist on their famous post-to-pay event: Cownty Fair by MilkUP.
From August 9 to 18, #MilkUPCowntyFair will take over Lansdowne Park's Aberdeen Pavilion. Here, you can embrace the yeehaw spirit and enjoy an old-fashioned county fair-inspired experience that celebrates the best of Ontario summers.
Brought to you by the creative minds behind Moo’seum and the Big Moo’d Market, MilkUP's highly anticipated pop-up is packed with interactive activities, fun photo opps and mouth-watering eats from local vendors.

Your fave Ottawa-area spots will serve limited-edition dairy-filled treats and goodies you won't find anywhere else. And the best part about Cownty Fair (other than a chance to don your best country-inspired attire) is that you can enjoy these delectable treats for free!
All you have to do is follow @milkupontario on TikTok or Instagram, post about your experience, and tag #MilkUPCowntyFair and @milkupontario. It’s a fun and easy way to enjoy some of the best dairy delights the National Capital has to offer.
Satisfy your comfort-food cravings with Elgin Street's very own Gitanes Burger, who'll be serving up summer classics like buttermilk corn dogs and mac and cheese.

After that savoury goodness, you'll need something sweet from Hintonburg dairy royalty The Merry Dairy, serving up blueberry-cream-pie ice cream and sweet corn jalapeño swirl.
Other highlights include fried popcurds and poutine from Lou Fast Food, milky bubble tea from Tealive, and gochujang cheese gimbap and rosé tteokbokki from Raon Kitchen — a unique fusion of dairy and Korean street food.
The #MilkUPCowntyFair is not just about the food; it's also about the fun. In addition to the yummy eats, you can enjoy fun fair games, take Instagram-worthy photos with your pals and even do some line dancing on weekdays.
