When you think of a state fair, you imagine the agricultural regions of the Midwest or Northwest. However, the 50 states also offer America’s favorite entertainment. The 50th State Fair is held at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu over several weekends from late May through July. All the traditional attractions are there: thrill rides, competitions, games, fair food and more. The Equinox is a great attraction at the ride area, featuring controllable spins and somersaults. The amazing zoo and circus area are kids’ favorites!
Circus Maceió features acrobatics and equestrian shows where animals and riders display amazing tricks. Over a dozen games are available, including the awesome Zipper and Wave Swinger. Typical fair foods include cotton candy, donuts, fried Oreos, Crazy Country Corn, Dippin Dots and more.
