Fayette Annual Celebration – July 25–26, 2025

In a town built by hard work, strong faith, and deep roots, we know how to come together and celebrate. Our annual 24th of July celebration is a tribute to the people who make this place special—the ranchers, farmers, and families who carry on the legacy of those who came before us. It's a time to honor the pioneers who carved out a life here with grit and grace, and to celebrate the traditions, values, and community spirit they passed down. Come take part in the tradition, enjoy some good food and good company, and celebrate all the things that make our little town something truly special.
