About
Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis is the home for the Wisconsin State Fair. The first State Fair was held in Janesville along the banks of the Rock River in 1851. In the early years, the State Fair travelled to different cities each year until a permanent home for the event was found in 1892 at its present location. It is the mission of the annual Wisconsin State Fair to celebrate agriculture and other industries paramount to Wisconsin’s rich history and promising future by producing family-friendly, affordable, safe, and educational event for all ages and ethnicities, creating memories and traditions to be carried on for generations.
