Do the Rides, Do the Feed Store, More to Do
The ever-popular midway is centerstage for more happening times. This is where kids, teens, and parents can be twirled, thrilled, and maybe let out a scream or two. Not to forget, the Fair showcases agriculture’s impact on The Palm Beaches. The award-winning agriculture and livestock program features more than 1,000 exhibitors from more than 30 Florida counties. And the Fair just won’t be the fair without rows of vendors displaying their latest gadgets, clothes, arts & crafts, and more. Not to mention illusion shows, parades, and all kinds of entertainment. And do take your time strolling where Florida’s rich history comes to life, Yesteryear Village.

What to Do Before or After the South Florida Fair
The South Florida Fairgrounds aren’t far from Royal Palm Beach Pines Natural Area, where you can enjoy the more peaceful surroundings of 350 acres that are home to white ibis, red-tailed hawks and great blue herons once the sights and sounds of the fair have tired your family out.
Just a little farther west of the South Florida Fairgrounds, lions, rhinos, zebras, and giraffes roam the Lion Country Safari park. America’s first drive-through wildlife preserve, it allows up-close experiences often only found on African safaris.
