BELLVILLE — As the much-awaited 97th Austin County Fair approaches, the 11 candidates vying for the prestigious titles of Austin County Fair Queen and Ticket Queen have been busy traversing the county to promote the annual event.
The 2024 Austin County Fair Queen and Ticket Queen will be crowned Saturday, Oct. 5, at the Austin County Fair Convention and Expo Center in Bellville, which is open to everyone to attend.
The pageant will begin at 5:30 p.m. Before the pageant, the candidates will have an interview portion where they meet one-on-one with the judges. The judges score the candidates on poise and personality, personal appearance, and how they respond to the questions. This year, the candidates only sold season passes to make it more of an even playing field for the ticket queen title.
