The fair utilizes special recognition days as a way to honor those New Mexicans who have dedicated their careers to public service in the classroom, on the street and in the trenches. On special recognition days, honored attendees are admitted free into the fair with proper identifying information.
“In partnership with Reithoffer Shows, the New Mexico State Fair has been able to provide some incredible discounts so that all New Mexico families can experience our wonderful fair,” said general manager Dan Mourning. “The state fair continues to be the best entertainment value for the money.”
