Shuswap Agricultural
Association
The Salmon Arm & Shuswap Agricultural Association is a non-profit organization (Registered Charity) and host of the Salmon Arm Fair. Recently, we changed the operating name of the association to the Shuswap Agricultural Association. Why a name change? While the previous name was descriptive, it wasn’t as straightforward as we would like. We are dedicated to preserving and enhancing through educational endeavours, the agricultural and historical legacy of the North Okanagan-Shuswap region of British Columbia. We invite you to join the Shuswap Agricultural Association as a Member, Volunteer, or Sponsor.
The Shuswap Agricultural Association are the owners and operators of the city’s oldest signature event, the Salmon Arm Fair, bringing the community together since 1897. The Salmon Arm Fair will be the last weekend in August, the 22nd through the 24th, 2025.
