With stores filled with back to school supplies, the MN State Fair seems like our one last hurrah of summer.

Every year is a different experience than the one before. Here is some of the latest info so you’ll be in the know.

Taste It

Everyone knows the most popular attraction is the food! There will be 12 days of pure deliciousness for those of you who come to satisfy your taste buds. Some of the newest creations are Barbeque Splits, General Tso Chicken Tacos, Nordic Waffles, Firecracker Shrimp Stuffed Avocado, and Mangonada Shave Ice. New restaurants this year are Midtown Global Market, The Hangar and The Anchor Coffee House.

Ride It

The Sky Glider and River Raft Ride are sure to be among favorites. In addition, there are 7 NEW rides this year!  Three rides are the ONLY one of a kind in North America! Look for Downdraft, Haunted Castle Dark Ride, Rock Star, and Twin Flip at Midway. Combination Carousel and Teacups will be new rides at Kidway.

Watch It/Listen to It

There is a great line up bands as well at the MN State Fair, such as Boy George, Earth Wind and Fire, and the Beach Boys, to name a few. Click here for a list of the Grand Stand Line-up and there are six stages with performances every day to keep you entertained.
