Thank you to everyone who came out, brought your families, cheered from the grandstands, explored the exhibits, visited the animals, rode the rides and made memories with us.

And an especially big thank you to our incredible volunteers and staff. This fair simply doesn’t happen without the countless hours, long days and hard work you put in behind the scenes.

We’re so grateful to everyone who helped make this year’s Granite State Fair one to remember. Until next year!

It’s the final day of the Granite State Fair! 🎡

We’ve got a full Sunday ahead with animals, exhibits, the midway, cow cuddling, Racing Pigs, Circus Hollywood and plenty more.

‼️Remember, just because it might be raining where you are doesn’t mean it’s raining at the fair. Last night was a great fall night at the fair with the rain deciding to mostly skip us😁

👑 Miss Granite State Fair Pageant — 12:30 PM
🍳 Frying Pan Toss — 1:00 PM
🚗💥 Demolition Derby — 4:00 PM, ticket check in starts at 2:00 PM.

Saturday at the Granite State Fair! 🎡🐐🚌

We’ve got a FULL day ahead — from oxen pulling, animals and cow cuddling to racing pigs, Circus Hollywood and tonight’s School Bus Derby at 7 PM!

☔ The fair is open rain or shine! As always, weather can impact individual events or schedules, so please check back here on Facebook or visit our website for the latest updates and any changes before heading out.

Weather update: rides WILL open today.

We took extreme caution in deciding not to open the rides due to predicted rain and wind. Fortunately that model has now shifted and we feel it is safe to operate. We will operate the midway for as long as weather cooperates.

Gates open at 10 AM — come spend your Saturday at the fair! 🎪

Lots of questions for the weekend weather. As of this moment, rain or shine, the fun’s still on. Our School Bus Derby and Demolition Derby are revving up no matter what. Grab a poncho, bring the crew, and let’s make some muddy memories together!

Our food, animal barns and circus will also still be happening. Some rides may be the only thing that cannot open and we will address pre-purchased mega passes at that time.

Please keep checking our website and social media pages. As any new information becomes available that is where it will be posted.

The All Star Monster Truck Tour is underway at the fairgrounds today and tomorrow. So much fun!
