    The biggest fairs of the year are held in Blacklion on 22nd May, an 19th November, these are the two hiring fairs, and boys and girls who are looking for work, go to these fairs and are hired by men, who require help on their farm's or in their homes. On fair days there are a lot of things sold on the street, and old clothes too.
