Welcome to Pinellas History Fair!

We are the premiere student history event in the county and are growing rapidly. As part of the National History Day program, we enjoy participation from museums, libraries, schools, community leaders and business leaders.

National History Day itself is a nationwide competition that has been growing year after year. Over 700,000 students and 40,000 teachers nationwide participate in this exciting event that is much like a science fair but much more. A central theme is announced by the National Center and students conduct research in order to write papers, construct 3-d projects, perform plays, computer programs, or create media presentations based on their research. The competition begins at the local level with the top two in each category moving onto the state fair in Tallahassee. Each state then sends its top two projects in the various categories to the National Competition at the University of Maryland in June.
