Everything is bigger in Texas and fairs are no exception. Carnival Warehouse's list of Top 50 Fairs ranked the State Fair of Texas at the top of its list. The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo came in second.
PUBLISHED 4:02 PM CST Feb. 03, 2023TEXAS — When it comes to ranking state fairs around the country, the State Fair of Texas tops them all, according to the latest study by Carnival Warehouse. It released data on the Top 50 Fairs in 2022, with the State Fair of Texas ranking #1 on the list.
“This year, we added several new shows, additional rodeo performances and brought back fairgoer favorites,” said Karissa Condoianis, State Fair of Texas senior vice president of public relations, in an interview with Carnival Warehouse. “While the 2021 State Fair of Texas was still celebrated by millions of people, we were emerging from the cancellation of the 2020 fair.”
Like most state fairs hosted annually, the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to those yearly traditions for many in 2020 and 2021, forcing those events to shut down as a safety precaution. For Carnival Warehouse, they described the comeback as a “year of restoration,” noting that 2022 equated to a “remarkable rebound for the fair industry.”
“This year’s fair brought a degree of normalcy, reminiscent of pre-pandemic times, back to our community,” said Condoianis. “This incorporates many facets of our organization, including both our entertainment and food lineup.
It's official! ✨You made the State Fair of Texas the highest attended fair, leading us to the top spot onWe are sending each one of you a Big Tex-sized thank you! 🤠❤️
