The Wilson County Fair typically draws around 500,000 total visitors.

The state fair has brought in around 110,000 to 120,000 in recent years to its event in Nashville. Neither fair was held in its traditional form last year because of COVID-19. This year however, show potential for a reviving much needed atmosphere for all parties involved.

Solaren is thrilled to be a part of the process of ensuring public safety and that everyone can enjoy themselves with their friends and family at this historical merger between Wilson County and the state of Tennessee.
