After operating in a drive-through model last year due to the pandemic, the Texas State Fair will be returning to an in-person event when it kicks off on September 24, according to a press release.
The theme of the 2021 State Fair, which will run through October 17 at Fair Park in Dallas, is “Howdy, Folks!”
“This year’s commemorative theme art encompasses the foundation of what the fair is all about – being together,” says Mitchell Glieber, State Fair of Texas president, via press release. “None of us could have predicted all that the COVID-19 pandemic would bring with it, but we feel so grateful to carry on the State Fair’s 135-year history and welcome everyone back with a warm, ‘Howdy, Folks!,’ this year. We’re excited to make up for lost time and help families and friends from all walks of life reconnect again, while making new memories to last a lifetime.”
