COVID UPDATE FAQ
Why is the 2020 Northern Wisconsin State Fair postponed?
Since the start of the pandemic, the Northern Wisconsin State Fair Board and staff have been working diligently to do what was necessary to host the annual fair and provide a safe venue.
The Northern Wisconsin State Fair has been closely monitoring COVID-19 data from local, state and federal health officials during this time. Due to the limitations placed on large public gatherings in terms of logistics, size, and first and foremost, the health and safety of our staff, volunteers, vendors, fair-goers, exhibitors and their families, we have made the very difficult decision to postpone until 2021.
