West Tennessee State Fair returns to the fairgrounds

JACKSON,Tenn. — The West Tennessee State Fair is back! Until September 18, fair goers have the chance to enjoy some annual fun.

“We came last year and had a blast so we came again this year. Just spending time with the family and having fun and enjoying the weather,” says Hannah and Zach McEwen.

The fair has a number of exhibits, rides, food and other activities that attendees can enjoy.

The first night of the fair kicked off with a “pay one price” admission.

For the rest of the week, there will be pageants, a singing contest, wrestling shows and more.

 “We love coming to see all of the exhibits and my kids always enter a bunch of arts and crafts and so we just love coming to see who won and what other people are making. We rode a couple of roller coasters already, we’re kind of slowing down at the moment,” says Laura Wilson. 

Admission to the fair is $5. During the weekdays, gates will open at 5 p.m. and on the weekends gates open as early as 11 a.m. on Saturday and 10:30 a.m. on Sunday.
