We’re officially one day away from the return of the Coastal Carolina Fair and you could say we’re wheely excited.

In case you missed our fair guide, we’ll give you the low-down on this years festivities:

🎡 The fair runs Thurs., Oct. 27-Sun., Nov. 6. Heads up: There will also be a Senior Day on Weds., Nov. 2, featuring seniors-only programming before gates open to the public.

🎡 Pro tip: Score discounted tickets at your local Circle K or purchase online.

🎡 Expect a fair share of competitions, including the Chili Cook-Off and Fine Art Show.

Bonus: We spotted an article from Holy City Sinner detailing the fairs new slogan, “All New in 2022” — a nod to the event’s long-term partnership with fifth-generation amusement company Reithoffer Shows.
