Four States Fair and Rodeo

The Texarkana Arkansas Police Department has released crucial information regarding traffic, safety, and security arrangements for the upcoming 2024 Fair in collaboration with Fairgrounds security.

It's Four States Fair and Rodeo time once again in Texarkana! This will mark the 78th year when the Fair opens today (March 31) and runs until April 9, 2023.

The Four State Fair and Rodeo kicks off this Friday! Of course, it's fun but there are some rules and regulations that everyone should know about before you go to make sure we all have a safe and fun time.

If you haven't tasted the food at the Four States Fair yet, what are you waiting on?

The Fair is adding a few new twists and events to the line-up of fun this year. Here are the ticket prices, new events and the schedule for the 72nd Annual Four States Fair and Rodeo, Friday, September 9, through Sunday, September 18.

The rodeo is here! Wednesday night was the first night and it was fantastic. Plenty of action to keep you in your seats.

The rodeo kicked off in Texarkana on Wednesday night. The cowboys rode broncs and bulls, roped calves and more but the clown act was also a great show.

The fair is in town and that means fair food is what's for dinner. If you haven't been out to the fair yet, you are missing out on some fabulous treats. There is even something for the folks who want to keep it healthy. From sandwich wraps to salads, sushi, California rolls, BBQ, fish, pizza, funnel cakes, anything you can think to fry and many yummy desserts.

The Starz Youth Talent Show preliminary was held on Monday night at the Four States Fair and Rodeo. Twelve finalists, listed below, were selected. These finalists will perform again on Thursday for a chance to win studio recording time and a demo CD.

I know it's hard to imagine that it's fair and rodeo time again but it is. The first night of competition during the Starz Youth Talent Show is Monday but here's the thing, you need to get signed up right now.

Did you ride the Freak Out at the fair this year? I did--three times! I videoed the fun from above this year too. Watch the reaction of the first time rider.

Here is the schedule for the 70th Annual Four States Fair and Rodeo, Friday, September 12 through Sunday, September 21, 2014:
