Wife and I visited. Great place to see and walk around. They had great exhibits and had food vender and alcohol sales for those who like beer. It is somewhat pricey. Upon leaving they had shuttle service to your vehicle which was great when tired or handicapped. We are going again.

The worst state fair we've been to (we've been to 4). It felt more like a county fair, not a state fair. The parking seemed to be non-existent. Residents were outside of their homes and tried to charge $10 for parking. Outrageous. We parked on the street for free with no problems and it was maybe a ...

I love going here every year to the demolition derby But this year not so much. All they have is bud beer and dangerous conditions for the derby. They don't water the arena enough and had to be stopped twice to make some drivers weren't seriously injured. Too many cars in some heats. But I still l...

We frequent here for random events. Always have fun, and it is always super crowded. Always amazes me how one place can host so many different things and, it feels like a new place each time. From the state fair to when Evraz used to have the family appreciation days.

The grounds are old and run down. The fair doesn't seem to be what it once was and safety does seem to be a concern (did that security guard just waive those people through and not wand then?). The vendors are always nice to look at and visit but the prices are oftentimes not worth it.

Parking is...

Same thing every year. Prices are outrageous! They shut off all the water fountains throughout the fairgrounds, forcing people to have to purchase water. We go for the kids. They love seeing the animals, trucks, and other displays and events, as well as the rides, of course.

The state fair brings back lots of memories of my childhood. The fair grounds haven't changed since then and could really use a revamp. For one, they don't allow outside food and drinks, but they don't have many drinking fountains or much access to water. That's so important in the middle of summer ...

If you think the fair is old it is ...its 146 years old....its history made in Pueblo CO. If you think prices are high go to 6 Flags in Denver and really see what rip off means. Or try a 9 dollar beer at a 75$ Bronco game. If you think its a rip off now wait till Denver or Greely gets it . You will ...

Location is great once a year we get visitors from all over so it brings in revenue that our town needs. I also love to eat that Indian fry bread. Although it is very expensive. The prices need to be more reasonable or I'm not going to be going back any more.

There are a lot of the buildings and bathrooms that are out dated and in need of some up keep or remodeling. The asphalt on the road ways need to be redone to keep down on the trip hazards. Shows are ok. Prices on things are way to high. Parking places are slim. Why has there been no parking garages...

We enjoyed the day at the State Fair. My only complaint is the absolutely insane food prices! $14 for a turkey leg. Are you kidding me! Fair admissions are down and officials wonder why. You just about have to have a winning lottery ticket to fund fair food.

I hate the Colorado State Fair! Everything is WAY over priced and there is no reason for prices to be that high. The ONLY reason we go is to take the grandbaby and then, AND THEN they don't allow my grandson to ride the rides because he's not tall enough by their height poles. What upsets me is ...

The food was great! The guys doing the caricatures were phenomenal. Now to address the other issues, the t-shirt vendors were all selling the same merchandise, the rides for small children as well as those for adults and teens were in an area the size of a parking lot yet they were charging as if it...

0/10 would recommend going here. I attempted to call the box office on this matter, but their line will not connect you, no matter how many times you press 5 to speak to someone. My boyfriend and I went to the state fair tonight. Upon purchasing our tickets, we noticed we were charged for 5 tickets ...

The Colorado state fairgrounds including the event center are well maintained and offer a variety of events throughout the year including various concerts and the Colorado state fair every August. Great family fun and plenty of parking areas surrounding the fairgrounds within short walking distance.
