The 165th Indiana State Fair, which wrapped up this past weekend, attracted more than 837-thosuand fairgoers.
That’s an increase over last year’s fair attendance, despite a heat index above 90 degrees for five days.
Just like last year, the fair added an extra weekend and closed weekly on Mondays and Tuesdays. With this new setup, they say fairgoers experienced shorter lines for events and food stands. They plan to follow the same formula for next year.
They say 6,600 exhibitors showed or displayed nearly 46,000 animal and non-animal projects. Also more than 62,000 milkshakes and 32,000 grilled cheeses sandwiches were consumed from the Dairy Bar.
