THE COUNTDOWN IS ON!
The gates at the 2015 NC State Fair open today at 3pm. Vendors and exhibitors are ready for 11 straight days of large crowd, fried and unusual food, rides and fun.
The much-talked-about deep-fried peanut butter pickles, topped with bacon, chocolate sauce and powdered sugar, has many fair goers anxious to try the delicacies. Click here for a complete list of new food at this year’s fair.
For those wanting to avoid traffic and parking issues, local transit agencies and Amtrak are ready to help out with park-and-ride services from numerous locations. Information for the park-and-ride trips are on the State Fair website.
The State Fair runs until October 25th.
