What's happening at the State Fair?
At this time of year, most of what's going on happens in offices where paperwork is stacking up and meetings are taking place. If you're trying to find out about FAIR PARK, please visit www.fairpark.org for maps, directions, institutions or park-wide information. The State Fair of Texas is responsible for activities taking place in the park in September and October. The rest of the year, please call Fair Park Administration at 214-670-8400.
Is there anywhere on the Internet to find out what's going on in Fair Park right now?
GuideLive.com is a great place to start.
Why can't I find State Fair Music Hall and State Fair Box Office in the phone book?
Because you aren't using the correct names. Try looking under "M" for The Music Hall at Fair Park and "B" for The Box Office (Preston Royal). The association with the "State Fair" name ended in 1972.
