The Valley’s annual fair, the Mid State Fair, will be returning July 17-28, 2024. The theme of the 78th annual fair this year will be Wide Open Spaces; combining the wild West with outer space. Seen Nope (2022), anyone?

“Cowboy boots, UFOs, moons, stars, wagon wheels and cactus! This year’s theme is especially unique as we look to the stars for inspiration. The mix between country and outer space will make for many interactive and educational exhibits for all age groups. We are looking forward to seeing the creative crafts and art our community enters this year. Be on the lookout for UFOs and spaceships making their way to Paso Robles this July!”

– Mid State Fair CEO Colleen Bojorquez
