Calling All Oklahoma All-Stars 55 and Up: When's the Big Day at the Fair?
The Oklahoma State Fair is a yearly pilgrimage for Okies of all ages. Deep-fried butter? Check. Prize-winning pigs? Check. Mutton bustin' (yes, that's a thing)? You betcha! But for our seasoned citizens, there's a special day dedicated just to you, with all the fun and none of the teenage angst (hopefully). So, grab your sunscreen, your stretchy pants (because funnel cake!), and your most comfortable shoes, because we're about to find out when Senior Day hits the Oklahoma State Fair this year!

| What Day Is Senior Day At The Oklahoma State Fair |
Drumroll, Please...
Mark your calendars, folks, because Senior Day for the 2024 Oklahoma State Fair falls on Wednesday, September 18th! That's right, a whole day of fair fun designed especially for our senior superstars (ages 55 and over, to be precise).
Tip: The middle often holds the main point.
But Wait, There's More!
Not only do you get free admission to the fairgrounds on Senior Day, but there's also a special program waiting for you at the Modern Living Building. This year's theme is "Senior Day Around the World," so get ready to embark on a global adventure without leaving the fairgrounds! Expect:
- Free health screenings: Get your blood pressure checked, your sugar levels monitored, and maybe even learn a new yoga pose or two.
- Activities and entertainment: Think line dancing demonstrations, trivia contests with international flair, and maybe even a performance by a (slightly less sprightly) Michael Flatley impersonator.
- Food (of course!): Because no trip to the fair is complete without indulging in some fair food classics. Don't worry, we won't judge if you sneak a bite (or two) of that deep-fried Oreo.
