Kentucky state fair - a century long tradition celebration

Kentucky state fair - a century long tradition celebration


By Blake Jackson

The Kentucky State Fair, a cherished tradition spanning over a century, is more than just an event; it's a vibrant tapestry of our state's identity.

As Agriculture Commissioner, Jonathan Shell eagerly anticipates this year's fair, a showcase of our agricultural prowess, innovation, and community spirit.

From the moment you step onto the fairgrounds, you're immersed in the heart of Kentucky. The sights, sounds, and smells create an unforgettable experience.

Livestock exhibitions, agricultural displays, and culinary delights come together to celebrate the backbone of our state's economy.

AgLand, a dedicated space within the fair, offers a glimpse into the future of agriculture. It's here that visitors can explore cutting-edge technologies, engage with 4-H and FFA members, and gain a deeper appreciation for the hard work that goes into producing our food and fiber.

Beyond agriculture, the State Fair is a platform for entertainment, education, and family fun. Live music, thrilling rides, and a variety of exhibits cater to all ages and interests. It's a place where rural and urban communities converge, fostering a sense of unity and shared pride in our state.

As we invest $200 million in renovations to enhance the fairgrounds, we're committed to creating an even more extraordinary experience for future generations.

The Kentucky State Fair is more than just an event; it's a symbol of our state's rich heritage and bright future.

Jonathan Shell encourages everyone to attend this year's fair and celebrate all that Kentucky has to offer.
