The Great New York State Fair is a 13-day showcase of agriculture, entertainment, education and technology. With midway rides, concessionaires, exhibits and concerts, it has become New York's largest annual event and an end-of-summer tradition for hundreds of thousands of families from all corners of the state. The first fair took place in Syracuse in 1841 and took permanent residence there in 1890. It is the oldest and one of the largest state fairs in the United States, with nearly one million visitors annually. The Great New York State Fair begins on the third or fourth Wednesday in August and runs for 13 days, ending on Labor Day. It is held at the 375-acre Empire Expo Center on the shores of Onondaga Lake, in the town of Geddes, near the western border of Syracuse. It is within a 5-hour drive from Boston, 4-hour drive from New York City, Philadelphia, and Montreal and about 2.5-hour drive from Albany. The grounds opening hours are usually between 7 am and 10 pm, while the exhibition buildings are usually open from 10 am to 10, with an exception of Labor Day when everything closes at 9 pm. The New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets owns five of the buildings at the fair and employs its workers.
