The biggest fair we have here is the Eastern States Exposition (aka: the New England States Fair; aka: The Big E). Like most fairs of its type, its pretty much the same thing every year; horse pulls, ox pulls, tractor pulls, the midway, livestock shows, etc. I haven't been for years. The oldest continuing fair in the US is the Topsfield Fair. It's been operating since 1818.
