Director Chinn tells listeners that the biggest improvement you’ll see at the state fair in Sedalia is the Governor Mike Parson Arena being constructed there. “So the warm-up arena is already up and ready and they are constructing the big arena right now. We’re actually going to send our tram route through that area so that fairgoers can watch that construction in progress and be a part of that,” Director Chinn says. There are big names who will perform at the State Fair Grandstand as well, including Wynonna Judd, Flo Rida and John Anderson. There will be tons of fair food and the popular “Pork Place restaurant” and the Beef House. Numerous livestock shows are planned, along with draft horse shows and numerous carnival rides.
