The Tulsa State Fair is a fair and exposition in Tulsa, Oklahoma that operates during an 11-day span starting at the end of September and ending early in October. Of Oklahoma's two state fairs, it had the smaller annual attendance by a small margin in 2010. It attracted about 1,097,000 visitors.
There are many different attractions at the Tulsa State Fair, which include thrill rides on the Midway to agricultural exhibits located in the Built Ford Tough Livestock Facilities
The largest facility at the fairgrounds is the newly renovated QuikTrip Center (formerly: "Exposition Center" and "International Petroleum Exhibition (IPE) Building"). Inside, vendors and exhibit booths line the entire floor, providing both educational and money-saving experiences (many vendors offer special "state fair" pricing in order to attract customers).
