It’s time to wave goodbye to the 2018 New York State Fair. PARADE PRINCESS 17What a dazzling show it was. It’s really a miracle to see that massive event come together to thrill us for 13 days. Kudos to the staff that pulls it off, year after year.

It was another landmark year, with a little of everything in terms of weather and many attendance records–including the single day mark–falling.

The debut of the 110,000 square-foot Exposition Center marks a new era for the Fair as that stunning addition completes development of the western end of the grounds, at least for now. There’s still room for more changes and nearly a year to make them.

Enjoy the memories while we start to look ahead to making more.
