The Pinehurst Fair Barn is the oldest surviving 20th-century fair exhibition hall in North Carolina. It was built in 1917 for use at the Sandhills Fair, one of the major county fairs in the Southeast. It is located within the confines of the Pinehurst Harness Track, which is the oldest continuously operating equine sports facility in North Carolina.
