When is the State Fair of Texas, You Ask?
Let's Talk Turkey and Deep-Fried Everything
So, you're itching to sink your teeth into a Fletcher's Corny Dog and ride the Texas Star, huh? Well, hold onto your cowboy hats because the State Fair of Texas is almost here!
Mark Your Calendars, Folks!
The State Fair of Texas runs from September 27 to October 20, 2024. That’s right, 24 whole days of fried food, live music, and people-watching. It's basically a Texan's Christmas.
Plan Your Attack (or Your Itinerary)
Before you dive headfirst into the chaos (we mean fun) of the State Fair, let’s plan your strategy.
- Food: Obviously, this is the main event. We're talking deep-fried Oreos, turkey legs the size of your forearm, and enough sugary drinks to give you a sugar rush that would make a hummingbird jealous.
- Rides: From the classic Ferris wheel to heart-stopping roller coasters, there's something for everyone. Just remember, if you eat too much fried food before getting on a ride, you might regret it.
- Exhibits: Learn something new at one of the many exhibits. From agriculture to art, there's always something to spark your interest.
- Live Music: Enjoy free concerts featuring a variety of artists. It’s the perfect way to rest your feet and refuel with another corny dog.
