Saddle Up! State Fair Of Texas Announces Weekend Rodeos, Attractions, And Entertainment Lineup For 2021

After more than a year and a half of anticipation for the most Texan event on Earth, the time has finally come. The State Fair of Texas is gearing up to celebrate 135 years of all things Texan with one heck of a safe and festive shindig. It will be the return of your favorite Fair time tra- ditions and family fun.

Themed “Howdy, Folks!,” the iconic 55-foot cowboy, Big Tex himself, can’t wait to welcome everyone back to historic Fair Park, starting Friday, September 24. With safety at the forefront of every decision, the State Fair of Texas has reimagined fairgoer’s favorite attractions and entertainment to provide a fun and safe experience for all.

Planning for the big event is fully underway and the State Fair team has curated the perfect lineup of attractions and entertainment – bringing back so many fan favorites and adding some brand-new, can’t-miss things to do.

With more than 80 free attractions included with your admission, 70 Midway rides, and endless entertainment across the fairgrounds, the State Fair is excited to announce several new attractions for the 2021 event.

What’s New:

This isn’t our first rodeo, per say, but it is all-new for the 2021 Fair! Home of the 1959 Original National Finals Rodeo, we are proud to bring a rodeo back to the historic Fair Park Coliseum this year – and each rodeo is FREE with your admission ticket to the Fair. From high-energy bull riding to wild cow milking, you won’t want to miss the Rodeo on your visit to the Fair this year. Presented by United Ag & Turf, the State Fair of Texas Rodeo will take place each weekend of the Fair during the evening. For more information on the 2021 Rodeo, visit BigTex.com/Rodeo.

From the makers of ¡Fiestas de Marionetas! you won’t want to miss the all-new Country Roundup on the re-designed Dr Pepper Midway Stage. Created exclusively for the State Fair of Texas, Country Round- up features animatronic and manual puppetry, and a vintage carousel-style stage to captivate its audience. Bring the whole family! This attraction is sure to entertain fairgoers of all ages.

Just when you thought we’d carved it all – joining the lineup for the 2021 State Fair is the Vegetable Carver. Think chain- saw carver meets giant pumpkin carver. Working his magic on fruits and vegetables, he travels around the country, teaching the culinary art of fruit and vegetable carvings and leaving spectators and culinary professionals spellbound. Trust us, you’ll want to see this for yourself. Find the Vegetable Carver daily at the GoTexan Pavilion.
