From corn dogs and blue-ribbon roses to roller coasters and prize-winning pigs, the South Carolina State Fair is best known for bringing 12 days of exhibits, competitions, food, midway rides and entertainment to Columbia each October. With six exhibit halls and 104 acres adjacent to the University of South Carolina’s Williams-Brice Stadium, the South Carolina State Fair offers football parking and
is a popular venue for major events such as home and garden shows, civic functions and charitable fundraisers. The South Carolina State Fair has donated almost $6 million in scholarships since 1987. Our next annual SC State Fair is scheduled for Oct. 8 - 19, 2025
