Funnel cakes, Ferris wheels and a plethora of fried foods … yep, it’s time for the Utah State Fair. What started as a small gathering 159 years ago has grown into a 10-day event that brings some pretty big headliners to entertain the crowds. On the docket this year are acts including The Beach Boys (Sept. 8), Grand Funk Railroad (Sept. 12) and Disney Channel’s Zendaya (Sept. 13). Additional grandstand entertainment includes high-flying, 360-degree flipping BMX athletes, and—for the cowboy in all of us—be sure to make time for the traditional rodeo, horse show, truck pull and barrel racing. Kids will enjoy the K9s in flight as dogs dive for objects high in the air before landing in a pool. The Utah State Fair continues to promote Utah’s Own products that are locally grown and prepared from all over the state. (Aimee Cook O’Brien, City Weekly)
