Florida State Fairgrounds Reviews

Love, love, love! I come here every single year for my birthday! Mother loves it as well as my siblings.

Amazing number of great rides and very interesting shows. We watch the Chinese acrobats as well as an alligator wrestling show. The grandkids Road most of the rides

Had a Blast st the Fair this Year... Great Food!!! Cold Beer!!! Who could ask for more? The exhibits with the old time Cracker Houses was very interesting... We also got to see a demolition derby... lots and lots of fun!!! We also found some really good buys at the expo...

I have been going to the NY State Fair for many years and love it and this one compares quite well. Clean , great "fair" food, tons of rides, took an uber so easy to get in and out , great musical acts. Friendly people. A great Fair!

From the State Fair to concerts at the amphitheater, there's always something going on at the Fairgrounds. Parking is extra

Always a great time at the Fair! Love seeing the animals and shows. Fun times

First time, much bigger than I thought. Need a couple of days to enjoy

Circus was great, on site services were horrible, parking attendant in particular.

Always love the state fair but always have trouble finding my car when trying to leave. When we went a few weeks ago, we walked out the wrong gate. We walked around the huge parking lot at LEAST 5x trying to find my car but it was literally no where. We finally asked one of the guys directing traffic if there was another parking lot somewhere but he was completely clueless. Eventually we kept walking & found the other parking lot after all the other cars had left. Would be better if they made the parking lots more clear & well marked as well as having informed people directing the traffic in the parking lots.

Lots of police which is great but vendors and tickets are outrageous, no average class family can go and not spend their weeks earnings on a evening of fun. Ride wristbands are 35.00 alone plus admission fee of 13.

Came from out of town for my nephews graduation. Everything went great until it was time to leave. The crew working the parking did not have a clue on how to move vehicles in and out of the fair grounds. Waited an hour in traffic just to get out of the parking lot after the graduation! This crew was trying to get the next graduation class into a lot that was already full before letting us leave. What a horrible experience.

Lots of rides. They even have $2 Tuesdays for entry.

The fair was ridiculous.. paid all this money to get in to be harassed by carnival trash

great family attractions good food lots of rides for everyone and many exhibitors

Pretty good experience! This place is always fun to go with your family and friends even though it can be pretty packed

Amphitheatre went to Miranda Lambert and LBT great place for concert.

It was my first time. I loved all the attractions and the food. I cannot wait until next it. Nice experience

Showing alot of signs of age. Still functional but could use a facelift

Come experience cowboy church every Sunday at 11 am with lessons from the horse through God's Word with Cowboy-Up Ministry!

Went there for Rockstar cheer $10 one time parking $14 all day parking for reg car. Temperature checks prior to entrance, a few food trucks, food kiosk and cheer vendors. Overall not a bad venue, just wish they had more accessible seating for disabled at this event and more trash cans. The stands were full of trash by the end of the event.

Lots of things to do. They have a place called Cracker Country, which is interesting. It's old buildings. You wander at your own speed through the buildings and in general store you can buy things. Is open starting tomorrow.

I attended a convention of Jehovah's witnesses here. Nearly 6000 people were in attendance Sunday, July 30 for the concluding session. While it's not an elaborate venue, it provided exactly what we needed.

I enjoyed the fact of more rides for the little ones. The food options were okay but again pricing was a concern. (I.E. there was a booth with 5 fried conch balls for $10 and most of it was the breading and a frozen drink that had little taste to it for $10. The drink is an average price for a frozen drink. In reality it was a $20 snack). The price just to get in was steep. We have a family of 7 and things can add up quickly. They should have more promo days and better advertise them. Be on the look out for the $2 day and if it applies to you the day they honor law enforcement, firefighters, and first responders.

This place is okay, the rides are sometimes fun as long as they don't make you sick.

For us 2 adults, there's nothing like a day at the Fair. The exhibits are extraordinary. Arts and crafts, Livestock and more. Many, many food choices of all flavors, good and bad. Cracker Country is a must visit.

I had a blast it was my first time. Just be prepared to do alot of walking and alot of rude people.

We have been here for state fair and cheer state competition and love how big the fairgrounds are.

Fun place to spend the whole day at. Yummy food, lots of treats and rides for kids. We enjoy learning about all the animals too. Always looking forward to Florida State Fair!

Went to the RV show. We had a good time. Easy parking, there is rides to bldg if you park farther out. Everyone is always so nice.

Attended The Home Show, was disappointed in the lack of variety. A lot of window, beds, & gutter guards companies. No tools or ladder company.

Went to a President Trump Rally. One of the best times I've had in years. The patriots in line waiting were incredible. #MAGA .
Trump truly love's America, and he's a incredible President.

Went to the RV Tampa show. Lots of food, vendors, RVs, supplies, education. Great way to familiarize yourself if you are looking to get an RV or buy extra goods and services if you already have one. It is an excellent wealth of information on Travel and RV locations and explorations. We go every year!

Great place
Clean

The gun show that was held here was amazing!! Plan on going again in the future and spend some more money. Support your 2nd ammendment rights!!

Different foods to try, good entertainment, vendors, live stock and many more good place to just get out of your house.

This is the place to be for Indian annual fair.super food and huge parking lot.The annual florida state fair is amazing with lots of rides for kids and ample parking and food joints.All the fair personnel were extremely cordial and this is the place to be for kids fun.

What a big Fair! The demonstration of milking a cow was fun. Check out more than just the Midway the Fair has a lot to offer

So big, so fun. Look for coupons. Iced tea jug $5 with $1 refills is worth the price if you're planning to stay several hours.

Fun, allittle expensive though! Had a good time, definitely go back next year!

The environment is awesome. A lot of square footage

Expensive...but still had fun. A must go ever year.

Nice staff. RV show laid out well. A lot of uneven walking covered up with flimsy carpet. However, I think that was the vendors. Almost fell a couple of times due to uneven ground. Had fun though.

Grass parking and lots of it! Beware of the deep mud after the rain. Pretty standard fair grounds otherwise.

definitely a great place to take the family just make sure it's not real crowded but always a good time

Had a great time. A lot of food and vendors to choose from. Check them all out first, some are more exspensive then others for same item. Water bottles rang from $1.to $4.,so look around. If you are doing more the 2 rides get the bracelet it is well worth it. Get a map so you can do the cheesy shows and find things.

The bathrooms no longer have long lines. I had trouble finding the chompas place, so I posted a picture of it.

I have been going since a little girl. I still love it
