Nebraska State Fair

We enjoy the fair every year. We understand that each year is different but that’s ok. This year will be different too. It’s a time for 4-H and FFA kids to shine. Masks are not a big deal and keep people alive.

Celebrating 150 years, the Nebraska State Fair is the best in the USA! So much entertainment and education within an easy walking area. The Kubota Rough Stock rodeo was added this year and was the most entertaining rodeo I've seen. Laughed and cheered through the entire time. This Nebraska State Fair has entertainment galore along with the exhibits to be judged, plus a new common area with a painting to celebrate our 150 years. This State Fair was relocated to Grand Island, a more central place in the state, in 2010. My home has been in this city for 40 years and I am proud to say it has been great for the economy here. My photos are from our tram ride to the rodeo with a rainbow over the entire area as well as the rodeo and the sunset over the fair buildings.

Very disappointed that the State Fair board is taking over the job from the Chamber of Commerce. The volunteer coordinator has always done such a wonderful job. She always made us feel needed and appreciated . I thing that is a huge mistake taking over. The volunteer coordinator is irreplaceable

Disappointing to not have the children’s museum there. Really nothing for children 3 and under to do. The rides they were too small. Need to have more shows like twiggy for the family. What they did have was a grocery store. Kids go with parents everyday.

We enjoyed our trip to the State Fair. Would have liked to see more vendors of food and merchandise for household items. And more rest benches to rest for us older people. Really liked the shuttles and the friendly bus drivers. Keep up the great work.
