Planning your visit to the New York State Fair: 10 things to see or do this weekend

The New York State Fair is underway.

If you’re looking for some fun things to do this weekend, there are regular daily events, as well as a number of must see attractions.

Attendance was down slightly on Day #2 from Day #1 this year. On Thursday, 48,591 people came out to the fair. That was down slightly from Wednesday’s 49,112. While some have pointed to smaller crowds being a disappointment for New York State, fairgoers will have a more enjoyable experience if the crowds stay smaller than pre-pandemic levels.
