It is the sort of event the coasts forget exists, and it is bigger than most of the festivals they do not.
Iowa State Fair 2027 dates
August 12 to 22, 2027, in Des Moines, Iowa — eleven days.
What the Iowa State Fair is
The fair describes itself as the largest event in Iowa and one of the oldest and largest agricultural and industrial expositions in the country.
A state fair is the one American event on this list that is genuinely about the place it happens in rather than about who is playing, and that is the reason to go: livestock barns, competitions and food on sticks are the programme, not the sideshow. It is also the cheapest day out here by a distance.
