Over 30,000 people came to the fairgrounds to attend the 2025 FairWell Festival. People came together with friends and family members to dance and hear big artists like Tyler Childers and Sturgill “Johnny Blue Skies” Simpson perform. 

Along with the fun, people wore many great outfits. Boots, glitter and hats were worn by many as festival attendees mixed their personal style to work with the warm weather and minimal shade available at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center, where the festival took place.
