Lots of barns with livestock in it for everyone to see and get up close to. Areas with lots of food vendors in it as well to chose from. There an area with the food tents and then there's another area with the nicer food stalls. Then there's also big buildings with various vendors and also food vendors. And of course can't pass up the cream puffs here at the state fair.
Wow! It was fantastic to have the Wisconsin State Fair back in play this year. It was packed but the place was renovated and ready for the mad rush. The food, giant slide, live music and animals were some of my highlights. We'll done!
This review is specifically for The Milwaukee Mile Speedway.This was my first experience with the speedway and it was the right time as it was also the first NASCAR race held there since 2009.The speedway is a mile (hence the Milwaukee Mile) with grandstand seating stretching from turn 4 to turn 1 (no bleacher seating for turns 2 and 3).During this visit, they had 2 races ARCA cars and NASCAR trucks and it got loud as soon as the signal to start their engines was given.Fun to see the winner of each race do a burnout/victory donut at the finish line.Makes for a great family fun activity (or day out with the guys).
Ain't no way you're gonna tell me that this state fair isn't one of the best!If there is one event that I look forward to going to every year, it is State Fair. Honestly, I don't care about the crowds, and I don't care about the music. I want to shop, and eat!My go to is the baked potato, with everything but the salsa, please! I just can't get into the cream puff....it's something about the bread. Other favorites are the elotes guy who is always by one of the walls of the grandstand, and the Machine Shed for their Krispy Kreme burger and chocolate covered bacon. Anything at Tropics is delicious, too.The vendors, located all across the grounds, not just in the Expo building, can be hit or miss, but that it the fun of it!The DNR area used to be better, but it is still an oddly quietish oasis in the hustle and bustle of the fair.We hit up the giant ferris wheel each year, usually twice...once during the day for great views of downtown, and at night, to see everything lit up. The giant slide is another favorite.The animal barns are interesting to see, for the simple fact of the many different varieties of each animal....I best most city kids only think of cows as black and white!If you're my friend or family, in town during state Fair week, you're going. I'll even stop and watch a performer or two, just for you. But, you're buying me my potato.41/2023
This was always a great moment coming here to the WISCONSIN STATE FAIR. I can't remember how many times I came to the Fair, but it was always worth coming. We came again on 8/7/23. This time we had a great experience. Loved it very much. I love coming to try new food, drinks and come for the rides games. We went together my son , daughter in law, and I. First I tried the Maple flavor spiral potato it was so tasty. We saw some new food and drinks we try at the Fair, we ate from the Tropics , the corn nuggets were delicious, also we try the Boom Boom shrimp tacos, they were the best. Then we went to try a new drink called the cotton candy lemonade it was so awesomely great for me at Saz's. We also try the Wisconsin cheese curds, drank some Iced tea and Coca-Cola soda, bought the new cups with it.After walking so much so we decided to go see the animals at the barn. We got to see the cows, goats, rabbit's barn they were doing acrobatics so cute. Some horses from small to big black brown and white.. Then we also saw some pigs, we didn't got to see the pig race tho ! After that we headed towards the rides came across the little store selling their Wisconsin State Fair merchandise. I bought a shirt, a fanny pack for my mom, two stickers for my notebook. We headed towards the sitting area to the concerts at the main stage to see from Christian music Kings Country and Katy Nicole. The Concert was best thing ever. First Katy came out singing her songs, she was phenomenal, great. Then after a while waiting on The pop duo, they came out with bang. It was the best performance we have ever seen. My son and his wife ate some caramel apple funnel cake, it tasted so good, and I was drinking some water after all the yummy foods I ate .Hopefully we're coming next year, but love to try the corn on the cob it is always good, the turkey leg , and other new things on the menu, lol. Also come see other artists or new artists.... performing like Mathew West, Jeremy Camp, Mandisa, or Toby Mac, maybe Lauren Daigle, Ryan Stevenson, and more.
