To register email navanbullriding@hotmail.co​m with the name of your team, the names of your team members, and whether you are entering the men’s or women’s division.

This year promises to be the best ride experience ever at the Navan Fair. We have listened to your feedback and as a result have booked some of the best rides out there for this years midway! Here are just a few of the awesome rides that will be at the fair this year. Check out the videos at the end of this post.

The Spin Out

The Spin Out is one of the wildest and most exciting midway rides available  today! Riders sit securely in seats on the outside edge of the ride.  As the Spin Out rises up, the six sets of seats start to spin, and the base of ride rotates around the floor pad. You’ll be north, south, east and west, right side up, upside down, and everything in between!

The Spin Out is sure to become a fair favorite!

The Alibaba

The Alibaba is a thrilling amusement ride that takes passengers on a magic carpet ride that won’t soon be forgotten. The Alibaba takes you to incredible heights and back down again at amazing speed! This is one of those rides where you want to ride it again and again!

Are you are up to riding this incredible ride?!

The Starship

This is one crazy ride! Experience up to 4 G`s of centrifugal force! Similar forces are achieved from NASA astronaut experiments simulating rocket take off and space travel G-Forces. Riders stand up against a wall while the floor drops out from underneath them and they are left stuck to the wall from the extreme centrifugal forces!

Other rides that will also be at the Navan Fair

• Large Basket Ferris Wheel
• The Sizzler
• Tea Cup
• Merry Go Round
• Berry Go Round
• Children’s Train
• And Much much more!

Dear New and Previous Concessionaires,

The Navan Fair is fast approaching, and I am getting geared up for this year’s fair. Also we will continue to add some picnic areas near the food vendors along the Arena roadway and the Curling Club roadway. We are still looking at ideas to bring more movement into this area such as exhibitor/crafter demonstrations at specific times during the fair. Also we have invited the local Crafters Guide members to join us again this year. If you have any ideas for the Curling Rink area please let the office know. We will have the Kids Corner in the curling club sponsored by Place D’Orleans.

Please read through all the rules and regulations and sign all areas that apply, in order for us to process your application and reserve a spot for you and your organization. We will NOT reserve your spot unless we are paid by the due date. Our committee has many requests for space and saving spots is NOT how we do business. We stick with the motto, “FIRST COME…FIRST SERVE”!

Should you need to contact us, please call the Navan Fair office at 613-835-2766 or fax at 613-835-4008 and by email me at navanfair@bellnet.ca .

The demolition derby has always been one of the favorite events at the Navan Fair, and this year promises to be no different. To participate in this event you need to be just a little bit crazy, perhaps even have a screw loose. Lets face it, you are facing off against a bunch of guys that want to ram you into next week.

I was curious as to what made demolition derby drivers tick so I sought out rookie competitor Justin “The Mad Man” Birch for his thoughts on this years derby. Justin struck me as a nice lad, but I’m quite sure that the elevator doesn’t go all the way to the top floor. You see, Justin has decided to paint his car in honor of his beloved Toronto Maple Leafs. He may as well have painted a target on his back. Justin has made it very clear that he isn’t a fan of Ottawa Senator supporters either, referring to them as “cocky.”  Justin is a brave soul indeed.

Lets take a look at what Justin had to say shall we?

Needless to say I think that whatever happens it is going to be a great show. Come see Justin “The Mad Man” Birch on Thursday August 12th at 7:00pm. Right afterward, there will be a mechanical bull riding contest under the domes with live entertainment!
