Each summer, The California Mid-State Fair becomes the place to be in San Luis Obispo County (SLO CAL). For twelve days, fair attendees can enjoy everything from unique exhibits to unique eats. Kids of all ages will love the two separate carnival areas with traditional rides and the Cub Country, a carnival dedicated to toddlers and young children. Check out the tractor races, diaper dash, pig races and so much more. When the sun goes down and the air starts to cool, live music shines. The fair has hosted the music industry's greatest from Aerosmith and Tom Petty, Blake Shelton and Garth Brooks to Justin Bieber and The Chainsmokers.
As a sponsor of the Mid-State Fair concert series, Visit SLO CAL was happy to provide you with memorable experiences while at the fair. The Mid State Fair is a can't-miss event that provides something for everyone. In addition to great rides, food, games, and attractions, the nightly concert series with world-class musical talent across genres ranging from hip hop to country, is familiar favorite paired with unique experiences that only the Central California coast can provide.
Visit SLO CAL gave away five(5) $100* cash prizes each night during the concert series and had the SLO CAL Social Wall, a fun backdrop for concert goers to capture their memories of the Mid-State Fair.
