It’s animals, agriculture, shows, exhibits, blue ribbon competitions, fine arts and crafts, fabulous food, music, and much more.
From the Demolition Derby to the King BMX Stunt Show to the racing pigs of Rosaire’s Royal Racers riders, the fair will be an action-packed 10 days. Alligator wrestling, magicians and the West Texas Rattlesnake show add to the excitement.
Savor everything from apple dumplings to deep-fried bubble gum. Battered, dipped, fried or on a stick describes many of the mouth-watering foods at this year’s State Fair of Virginia.
Equine Events honor Secretariat who was born on the grounds where the fair takes place. See mounted cowboys, miniature horses, draft horses, rodeos, drill team and ranch horse competitions, as well as jumping and dressage equestrian demonstrations.See the Original Drifters, the Fabulous Thunderbirds, and Parmalee plus some musical surprises from national recording artists and some artists of regional renown. Adding to the fun are the banjo and fiddle competitions.
