Big Tex - Dallas

State Fair of Texas Cultural Events Review

The State Fair of Texas has been running since 1886 and every year in September/October for about 3 weeks, thousands of people travel to Dallas to see exhibits, ride on the rides, and to some, the most important thing, to enjoy all the food the State Fair has to offer.
This is bought with coupons which you can buy in the park. Aside from the usual corny dogs, turkey legs, chicken wings, nachos and candy floss, there is always something new introduced. One year it was deep fried oreo cookies…!
The exhibition halls have a variety of exhibits on display, one of the most popular is the auto exhibit. Each night at 7.15 is the Starlight Parade. Senior Citizens day is on Thursdays where those aged 60+ get to enter the Fair for free.

Exhibit buildings are open from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m.
Museum hours vary.

Address : 3809 Grand Ave
