From livestock exhibitions to facepainting to simply getting out to enjoy the sunshine, the New York State Fair has loads of activities for children and adults alike. Youth Day encourages kids under 18 to get out and enjoy the fair by allowing them free admission for the day. With many new foods to try, rides to ride and things to see, the State Fair is a great place for kids to be.
