Juab County Fair Demolition Derby

Held annually in August at the Juab County Fairgrounds in Nephi, Utah, the arena fills and the lights burn bright for the adrenaline-fueled Demolition Derby.

The Juab County Fair has an abundance of exciting events, contests, games, tasty fair food, and entertainment, but the always thrilling, highly-anticipated Demolition Derby steals the show. Feel the roar of the packed crowd as the high-octane vehicular battle unfolds. You’ll be on the edge of your seat as drivers pit their skill and fearlessness against one another, slamming battered vehicles together until the last one moving wins. With a ton of prizes and cash on the line, the crowd delights in the largest payout going to the “Mad Dog” (the overall most aggressive driver of the night).
