Sign of the Times! New York State Fair Embraces Social Media Age in 2024
Something new is coming to the New York State Fair for 2024.
It's a sign of the times. Press aren't the only ones who can get into this year's fair for free. Social media influencers looking to cover the fair can too.
Credentials for all social media influencers are designed for in-person coverage of The Fair for promotion, blog coverage, and social media engagement. Social media handles and links must be provided along with the number of followers on each platform.
Parking passes are also available with free fair admission to any influencer looking to cover the 2024 Great New York State Fair.
