All About Oxford
Come explore the magnificent beauty of the town of Oxford, one of eight towns nestled in the Western Foothills of Maine known as Oxford Hills, where people live and work in a region of unlimited natural resources, including pristine lakes, ponds, rivers, and mountains. Oxford is surrounded by some of the finest ski areas in the state of Maine and hundreds of miles of snowmobile trails and hiking paths.
Oxford is home to Oxford Plains Speedway, Maine’s largest motor sports racing facility, located on Rt. 26. A 3/8 mile paved oval with short straights and wide, sweeping turns. The Speedway plays host to a Saturday night Oxford Championship Series, a Wednesday night Oxford Acceleration Series, a Friday night Go Kart Series and occasional Motor Mayhem events.
You can also join in the fun and excitement at Oxford Casino, the new Oxford, Maine casino gaming destination. As the only casino in southern Maine, Oxford Casino offers a unique entertainment experience with contemporary table games and slot machines. Grab your friends and have some fun at southern Maine’s only casino.
Maine is known for its agriculture and Oxford has wonderful farms in the area featuring home grown organic goods for sale at local markets.
Fall means agricultural Fair season! Come to the Oxford County Fair, featuring livestock shows, animal pull events, midway, crafts, exhibits, and a new harness race track.
Find a unique memento to commemorate your visit, or the perfect gift for someone else. It might be a trinket you buy at a boutique store or an antique from one of the many antique shops in the area. You can always take home a wonderful book about the state of Maine from The Maine Bookhouse, a reminder of how much fun you had exploring Maine.
