(Dallas, Texas) - Believe it or not folks, we're only three plus months away from fair season in Texas. In East Texas, that means the East Texas State Fair, the Gregg County Fair, and many more, will be welcoming you through their gates. I can smell the corn dogs and turkey legs already.

One the largest fairs in the entire country can be found in Dallas, the State Fair of Texas. Big Tex will be there to greet us with his signature "Howdy, y'all," Fletcher's Original Corny Dogs will sell a record number of corn dogs to you, and the Texas - O-Who, I mean, OU game will take center stage on a Saturday in October.

Theme and Poster of the State Fair of Texas

We recently got the official reveal of the theme and poster for the State Fair of Texas. No surprise that it follows the celebration of our country's 250th birthday. The red, white and blue is at the forefront of the poster while also showing off the love we have for our state.

The Food at the State Fair of Texas

It won't be long, either, before we'll get a preview of some of the unique fried foods that we'll be able to scarf down this year. I mean, you can go to the State Fair of Texas for the food alone. If it can be battered and fried, it will be at the fair.

Not every food is fried, though. There are some food combinations that will genuinely make your mouth water. Be on the lookout for a preview of the 2026 Big Texas Choice Awards soon.
