LOCATION: Fair Park

Fair Park in Dallas, Texas is home of the State Fair of Texas and the world’s largest collection of art deco exhibit buildings, the 277-acre complex hosts more than 1,200 activities every year including the State Fair of Texas and Red River Showdown. From festivals and concerts to sporting and gardening activities, Fair Park has somethings for everyone. On nearby Exposition and Parry avenues, across from the light rail station, a cluster of bars and restaurants bring nights to life for a little post-park adventure.
