Rent an RVThe Maryland State Fair has been held annually for over 130 years. It's an exciting event that gives the people of Maryland and visitors an opportunity to come together and have a whole lot of fun. This 11-day festival is chock-full of the attractions you'd expect to see at any great state fair—exciting rides, tasty food, interesting exhibits, live performances, and much more.
ACTIVITIES & ENTERTAINMENT
This year's state fair will be a festive event with an abundance of attractions and food vendors.
If you like rides, you'll be pleased to know that the fair's midway has got plenty of them. You'll find everything from your standard Ferris wheel and carousels to teacups and swings. There's also the adventure-filled Pirate Island, Crazy Chopper, Rocking Tug, and many more exciting rides.
In 2019, the midway added a new and exciting ride to its inventory, the Space Port. It goes high up into the air to perform its tricks and thrill its riders. Also new last year was a Circus Train that took fairgoers on a fun ride around the fairgrounds.
As far as entertainment and other activities are concerned, you'll get your choice of free and paid options. The 2024 lineup has yet to be announced yet. Some of last year's entertainment options may return.

WHERE TO STAY
There are plenty of great RV parks in the Greater Baltimore area. While most aren't near the fairgrounds, several are within an hour's drive. If you head east about 20 miles, you'll find Patapsco Valley State Park, which is relatively inexpensive and has electricity at Hollofield Campground within its borders.
You can also choose to stay at one of the many hotels near the fairgrounds. Check out the Holiday Inn, Extended Stay America, or Hampton Inn and Suites, which are all just north of the fairgrounds.
HOW TO GET THERE
Getting to the Maryland State Fairgrounds is not difficult at all, especially with all the signage you'll encounter once you get close to the venue. Just head to the intersection of York and Timonium roads, and you're there.
If you're coming from Interstate 83 North, get off at Exit 17 and take Padonia Road to York Road. Then, take York south to the fairgrounds.
If you're coming from Interstate 83 South, you'll be getting off at Exit 18 onto York Road, which will take you east to the fairgrounds entrance.
PARKING
Parking at the Maryland State Fairgrounds is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Because parking is limited, you should plan on parking your rig somewhere else. The organizers of the state fair encourage attendees to use public transportation, such as the Light RailLink, which will take you straight to the grounds. Uber and Lyft are also available to get you to and from the grounds. Ride-share drivers will drop off and pick up at the Deerco Road Park and Ride lot, which is another place you can also find parking. Whether you park there or get dropped off, you can be at the fairgrounds after a short 1.2-mile walk.
