Enjoy a variety of activities including sporting competitions, a fine arts show, free stages with kids’ entertainment, a farm animal delivery room, a petting zoo, helicopter rides, roving performers, agricultural competitions, horse shows, a natural resources park and much more! They have a lot of new things planned this year.The Mountain Dew Midway features more than 60 exhilarating rides, while Meijer Kiddieland is home to rides geared toward parents riding with small children.
Fair food is SO good and the Ohio State Fair has more vendors than any other fair or festival - nearly 200! To help you find all your favorites, they even have a Food Finder.
The Sloppy Donut BBQ Sandwich On A Donut With Fried Pickle Chips is calling my name. Cereal & milk ice cream, deep fried tacos and Tatchoes (tator tots meet nachos) are some of the fun new food that will be available. Food on a stick is a must and they have just about everything imaginable including a pork chop on a stick! Another favorite of mine is the roasted corn. They even have deep fried bacon-wrapped buckeyes.
