The Great New York State Fair

Note: The 2020 Great New York State Fair is going virtual. The next Great New York State Fair is scheduled for August 20-September 6, 2021.

This year, enjoy the 2020 Virtual Great New York State Fair right at home! From celebrations, online contests on the Fair's Facebook page, and activities from the Fair and its partners to livestreams of the annual Butter Sculpture reveal and dairy cow births, don't miss out on all these activities and events. If you're near the Fairground, treat yourself to drive-thru fair foods through Labor Day in the Fair's Orange Lot, and in the evening, sit back and relax in your car at the Fair's drive-in movies!
