What's special
The Wisconsin State Fair, presented by T-Mobile, returns to Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis for eleven consecutive days, August 5 through 15, 2027, with gate admission already published at twenty dollars for an adult, fifteen for a senior or a military member or veteran with ID, thirteen for a youth aged six to eleven, and free entry for children five and under. Gates run from ten in the morning to ten at night Sunday through Wednesday, stretching to midnight Thursday through Saturday, with same-day re-entry available by hand stamp until two hours before closing.
