Great for smaller gatherings like picnics, reunions, and weddings. Rolling hills with trees, lakes, and buildings to use.
The staff was all about making sure everyone had a good time and was happy, a very unique experience compared to other county fairs. In the most wonderful way.
Great for large gatherings: the fair; car shows; moto cross; etc. Room to spread out! Many buildings to use.
Even small last minute get togethers are great there, fishing, hiking, and nice walking roads.
I grew up in the area have I attended the state fair there many times over the past 45 years as well as other events at the fair grounds. The up kept on the property is great even when not being used. I just wish the state of Illinois would give the Du Quion State fair the same amount of money for entertainment that Springfield gets. This year Springfield received over $5,000,000 and Du Quion received way less than a $1,000,000. I believe that us locals in Southern Illinois deserve to get the same quality entertainment that Springfield gets. I work in Southern Illinois pay taxes here but we get shorted???? Little upset that the state short changes us. But it is a great fair still all in all. Lots of memories here. And yes I will be going back for the second time this year tonight. It was a blessing to take my grandkids over last Friday night. Hopefully they have made some memories that they can share with their kids some day.
I was there for the Street Machine Nationals. Weather was beautiful, huge number of hotrods and large selection of vendors. Your typical fair type foods are available at reasonable prices. Great time for everyone.
Always fun! Great way to celebrate my 7th wedding anniversary with Gin Blossoms!! A++++
