Wisconsin Fair Celebrates 175 Years | Madison News
Description
The Wisconsin State Fair turns 175 this weekend with a cherry cream puff debut—and yes, those iconic treats are hitting their 100th anniversary too. Since settling in West Allis in 1892, the fair has drawn over a million visitors annually, skipping only during global disruptions like WWII and the pandemic. This year’s 11-day run (since 1979) avoids school conflicts, and fans are lining up for hundreds of thousands of cream puffs. Meanwhile, Mineral Point’s “Paint the Point” and Cambridge’s “Art on Main” offer local art vibes this weekend. Next week? We’ll be live at the Agora Art Fair in Fitchburg—perfect for soaking up Wisconsin’s creative spirit.
