fair hungry, you have no one to blame except your mirror.
Traditional fair fare like cotton candy, pizza by the slice,
turkey legs, deep-fried Oreos and root beer are available.
The Pork Palace or the Beef House are great places to sit
down and enjoy a pork burger or steak salad.
The grandstand will be the place to be at night with
a full music and entertainment schedule. Trace Adkins
kicks off the fi rst night of the fair and is followed through
the 11 days by acts such as Boyz II Men, The Beach Boys,
Greentop native Rhonda Vincent, Hank Williams Jr. and
more. The grandstand will also play host to sprint cars and
a truck and tractor pull.
The possibilities are endless for your Missouri State Fair
adventure. Gather your friends and family, and try and
pack two years worth of fair experiences into your visit to
Sedalia.
