Grandstand Events

The races for Friday Night have been cancelled due to the rain.

Racing has been part of the Fairgrounds in Grand Forks from the beginning. The River Cities Speedway at the Grand Forks County Fairgrounds is one of the top dirt tracks in the country. So it only makes sense that we include racing as part of the entertainment at the Greater Grand Forks Fair. Racing is held every Friday Night during the Summer, and it is held on Friday at the Fair.


Three classes of cars will be racing on Friday, Steffes Street stock, Rebel Midwest Mod Tours and Lightning Sprints.


Entry into the grandstands for racing at the Fair is included in your Gate Fee of $10 for everyone aged 14 and older, $5 for ages 6-13, and free for 5 and under.

Demo Derby Cancelled - School Bus Races have also been cancelled because of the rain and wet conditions.

Are you ready for a SMASHING good time, then come join us Saturday in the Grand Stands to watch drivers duke it out to see who can outlast the rest and make it to the final heat. It will be full of crashin and smashin. Followed by the excitement of school bus races!!!

A special night of racing will finish out the 2022 Greater Grand Forks Fair. Come out to the Bullring to watch the NLRA Late Model Tour. Street Stocks and a Midwest Mods will fill out the show. As always, the races are part of your gate pass for the Fair.

A special 12 lap School Bus Race will take place after the Late Model feature to replace the races cancelled on Saturday.
