The Jackson County Fair is thrilled to announce the return of one of its most anticipated and adrenaline-charged events: Night of Destruction, taking place Sunday, August 2, 2026 at 6:00 PM at the Jackson County Fairgrounds in Maquoketa.

Known for drawing packed crowds and delivering nonstop excitement, Night of Destruction is back—and bigger, louder, and more chaotic than ever. This year’s event promises an action-filled evening where engines roar, metal twists, and drivers push their machines to the breaking point in a spectacle unlike anything else in Eastern Iowa.

Fans can expect a full lineup of wild, high-impact events as drivers race, crash, roll, and smash their way through an unpredictable gauntlet of destruction. From combines and school buses to trailers, boats, and anything brave enough to be put on wheels, no vehicle is safe—every run brings a new explosion of adrenaline and a new wave of crowd-roaring chaos.

The Jackson County Fair encourages people to buy their Tickets early as this Event SELLS OUT EVERY YEAR!  Concessions, fair food favorites, and beverages will be available throughout the evening.
