Central Florida Fairgrounds, Orlando

Founded in 1910 by a group of community leaders, The Central Florida Fair was put together as an outlet to celebrate the agricultural industry in Orlando and surrounding counties. Drawing an average of 250,000 in annual attendance, the Central Florida Fair successfully continues its mission to preserve and enhance the agricultural, cultural, educational, and historical legacy of Orange, Seminole, Osceola, Lake, Brevard, and Volusia Counties, known collectively as "Central Florida."

Visitors and residents alike enjoy rides at the exciting Midway, including everything from stomach dropping thrillers for adrenaline seekers, to Kiddie Land for the youngest of riders. The event is located just minutes from downtown Orlando on 87 acres with a Lynx Bus stop at the main entrance.

In addition to the traditional rides and fair food, the 11-day event will celebrate the accomplishments of local residents awarding nearly $200,000 in prize money to exhibitors. The Central Florida Fair is also the largest not-for-profit fair in Central Florida, and among the top five largest fairs in the state.
