GEDDES, N.Y. — The third Winter Fair is set for Feb. 4-6, 2022 at the Expo Center at the New York State Fairgrounds in Geddes.
The event features the food, rides, music, and entertainment that people enjoy in the summer at the New York State Fair, per a news release about the event.
“This is a community event. That was the whole idea that we wanted… Everybody loves the New York State Fair, so … what if [in] this beautiful building we bring in some of the best of the fair, which is the rides, music, entertainment, and the food and in the middle of winter,” Steve Becker, president and owner of Premier Promotions and promoter of the Winter Fair event, said in Monday’s announcement at the Expo Center.
The first Winter Fair in 2019 attracted about 25,000 people, Becker noted. The second Winter Fair was held in February, 2020, just before the COVID-19 pandemic started. The event could not be held in 2021 due to the pandemic.
The Nave Law Winter Fair again will feature a mini-midway with rides and musical entertainment is planned throughout the weekend.
“We are thrilled to have Winter Fair back in 2022,” Troy Waffner, director of the New York State Fair, said in the event news release. “It has become a tradition everyone looks forward to and it serves as our kickoff to the countdown to the New York State Fair.”
The Nave Law Winter Fair is not affiliated with the Great New York State Fair, organizers note.
