Description

The annual State Fair Meadowlands is back and better than ever. Get together with family and friends between June 23 and July 10 for a fun and memorable time.

Teens and adults will love the rides, like the Ski Lift, roller coasters, a 120-foot gondola wheel and more.

For the little kids, there are 35 rides in Kiddie Land just for them. There’s a big petting zoo as well, and tons of games to play.

After building up an appetite, try the Mexican concession, Greek food, or Puerto Rican food from Taino’s Kitchen in Newark.

With eight different shows every day, there’s something for everyone. The hypnotist and the racing pigs are two staples, plus this year there will be an illusionist and a magic show. There is also Jurassic Kingdom Lockdown, Cycle Circus, the BIG BEE Transforming Car and others.

Enjoy fireworks on July 3 and 4.

State Fair Meadowlands will be open on weeknights from 6 p.m. to midnight, Fridays from 6 p.m. to 1 a.m., Saturdays from 2 p.m.  to 1 a.m., and Sundays from 2 p.m. to midnight.
