More than 830,000 visit 2021 Indiana State Fair

INDIANAPOLIS, IN — A total of 830,390 fairgoers passed through the turnstiles at the 2021 Indiana State Fair, which ended its 18-day run Sunday.

The State Fair was closed on Mondays and Tuesdays and added an additional weekend as part of a new format. That helped spread out crowds across the additional day.

“It is wonderful to be back together for this iconic summer tradition and celebrate all things, Indiana,” said Indiana Fair Commission Executive Director Cindy Hoye. “We are thankful for a successful 2021 State Fair and for the opportunity to welcome Hoosiers back.”

The same format will be in place when the 165th Indiana State Fair returns July 29 through August 21, 2022.
