Lexington, Kentucky – The Bluegrass Fair has been canceled for Friday night, June 13, due to inclement weather conditions. This decision was made to ensure the safety of all attendees and staff at the event, which is currently being held at Masterson Station Park.

The Bluegrass Fair, which officially opened on Thursday night, is scheduled to run until June 15. Gates are expected to reopen on Saturday at 3:00 p.m., allowing visitors to enjoy the festivities once weather conditions improve.

Admission to the fair is priced at $8, while children aged six and under are allowed free entry. Free parking is available every day at the fair for all attendees. Guests have the option to purchase ride wristbands or single ride tickets, providing various choices for those looking to experience the fair’s many attractions.

The fair is organized by the Lexington Lions Club, which has a long-standing tradition of hosting this event for over 60 years. The fair serves as an important fundraiser for the local community, contributing approximately $250,000 in recent years to various local initiatives and programs.

According to the fair’s communications manager, there is a diverse range of attractions available this year, featuring popular rides like the Samurai and the pug-themed Pug Boat. The chairperson for the fair emphasized that there is truly something for everyone to enjoy, catering to a wide range of interests and age groups.

With a history deeply rooted in the local community, the Bluegrass Fair not only provides entertainment but also supports important causes and initiatives within the Lexington area. The cancellation of the event for Friday night is a precautionary measure, reflecting the organizers’ commitment to the safety and well-being of everyone involved.

As the fair prepares to reopen on Saturday, attendees are encouraged to keep an eye on weather updates and plan accordingly to ensure an enjoyable experience at the Bluegrass Fair.
