Free Admission on Wednesday September 19th.

 Free admission to the state fair does not happen very often.  However, today only, you and your family can go to the state fair for free.  Make sure to go today to check out the rides, foods, and events at this years fair.  Also, an added bonus, parking is always free this year!

 The New Mexico state fair is offering free gate admission all day Wednesday, Sept. 19.

 

State Fair General Manager Dan Mourning says the goal is to make the fair affordable to everyone.
"We want every New Mexican to be able to enjoy the event we've worked so hard to put together, and we understand that the economy is still pretty tough out there for most people in our state," said Mourning.

Regular price admission will be in place on Thursday, Sept. 20, but they are offering half-price all-day ride wristbands on that day only.

Parking is free everyday throughout the State Fair.
