Labor Day last day for Colorado State Fair

Fairgoers have a few options to enjoy on the state fair’s last day.

After 11 days of rodeos, livestock displays, concerts and carnival rides, the Colorado State Fair in Pueblo ends Labor Day.

Fairgoers have a few options to enjoy on the last day of the 152nd annual state fair.

Scheduled between a horse reining event at 8 a.m. and the grand finale drone show at 9 p.m. will be a lumberjack show, multiple concerts on various stages, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy rides, food and games.

“There is just a short time left to enjoy the biggest carnival in the state,” Colorado State Fair officials said.
