GEDDES, N.Y. — The New York State Fair says it’s looking for prospective employees to fill hundreds of temporary positions during this year’s edition.

The State Fair begins Wednesday, Aug. 24 and continues through Labor Day on Sept. 5.

The State Fair, a division of the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets, needs employees in the areas of guest relations, security, safety, and transportation (tram conductors). The State Fair is also looking to hire superintendents for the talent showcase youth talent show located at the talent-showcase stage, as well as for the demonstration kitchen and arts and crafts, both located in the Fair’s Art & Home Center.

Brief descriptions of each role are provided in the application on the Fair’s website.

Candidates interested in any of the positions should complete an online application. Work hours, rate of pay, and duration of employment varies per assignment, and the State Fair may need certain positions to start working before the Fair begins, the Department of Agriculture and Markets noted.
