The Illinois State Fair is excited to announce a special “100 Days Out” Celebration, set for Tuesday, April 29th, from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the Reisch Pavilion on the Illinois State Fairgrounds. This event marks the countdown to the opening of the 2025 Fair, which will take place from August 7th to 17th.
Guests can enjoy favorites from popular vendors such as Taft’s Mr. Ribeye, Food Baby, 17th Street Barbecue, Vose’s Korndogs, and Hae’s Bakery & Coffee Shoppe. Attendees will have the chance to savor delicious food and drinks while gearing up for the Fair.
As part of the festivities, anyone who purchases food will receive a raffle ticket for a chance to win an ultimate Illinois State Fair prize package, which includes two track tickets to every Grandstand concert during the Fair. You do not need to be present to win.
Additionally, discounted mega passes, jumbo passes, admission booklets, and parking passes will be available for purchase during the event.
Jerry Costello II, Director of the Illinois Department of Agriculture, expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming Fair: “We are proud to showcase the Illinois State Fairgrounds following another record-breaking year. This 100 Days Out Celebration is an opportunity to look ahead with excitement for the 2025 Illinois State Fair, which promises to be the biggest and best yet.”
Rebecca Clark, Illinois State Fair Manager, added, “This event is all about building excitement as we count down to opening day. It’s a great way to sample some of the Fair’s most beloved foods, stock up on money-saving passes, and energize the community for what’s to come in August.”
