Which states are canceling and which are holding off on that?
That's probably more indicative of what will happen.
Texas said they have until August 1st to decide. That’s when they start building it out and my guess is that it goes on.
Also for reference, the Texas state fair is the largest by attendance but runs twice as long as the Minnesota fair so the crowds are “only 80k” a day on average. It also starts the last Friday of September and goes through most of October.
I’ve always heard the 3 biggest fairs are Texas (most attendance), Minnesota (most attendance per day), and Iowa (largest fairgrounds acreage).
I’ve been to about 8-9 state fairs now and those 3 are by far the best and it’s not even close. I saw the attendance numbers for Ohio and thats nuts because that fair truly sucks. Minnesota would be way better if they added another week. It’s too crowded. Iowa is a good all around one with the best food. Texas has the most variety of things to do IMO.
