Syracuse, NY 13209
The Great New York State Fair is America's first and oldest state fair. It is a massive music festival, with more than 500 free performances over 13 days, highlighted by the daily shows by national touring acts on the Chevy Court stage. It features one of the largest midways, with approximately 90 rides and many games. The Fair is a food festival, with more than 200 vendors offering everything from the standard to unique and crazy food creations. Signature foods include the cup of perfectly chilled chocolate or white milk at the Rainbow Milk Bar, the $1 baked potato or sweet potato with all the fixings, and the sausage sandwich with peppers and onions that every politician absolutely must have before leaving. Animals of all kinds. Jugglers, characters, and all types of street entertainment. Fine arts. You can witness the miracle of birth in the Dairy Cow Birthing Center. Sample for free and buy some of the best foods made in New York State. And so much more.

If you are an anxious person, do not go here. Also, Kathy, can we talk about how you don't allow cash ticket sales at the gate? Really? You don't take US currency at the state fair? Get real
