The New Mexico State Fair will open at 2 p.m. Wednesday - and there are some big changes this year.
The fair will be open 12 straight days instead of 13 days over a 17-day period like last year. The reason for the change?Attendance and revenue was down last year.. so organizers re-grouped and shot for a later start and fewer days. Another big change is the price.Expect to pay more to get in - admission is $10 dollars for adults and $7 for seniors and kids 11 and under. Kids five and under get in free. However, this year, parking is free. New rides and attractions this year include a zip line open daily at 10 a.m. and a smaller carnival just for younger children, located off the Midway. New food items include a donut burger, fried frog legs, fried beer and deep-fried lemonade cake.
