Maui County Fair
The Maui County Fair 
The Maui County Fair, held at the end of September each year, eis always a treat for Maui residents. Once a year everyone on the island comes together to enjoy good food, exciting rides, great live music, big laughs, and lots of fun.
Admission and Hours
Admission to the Maui Fair is much less costly than most fairs around the country. In 2007, the Maui Fair admission cost was only $4 for Adults, and even less for Keikis. The Fair runs on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and open to an unprecedented 12 midnight! This is a rare thing for Maui.
Maui County Fair Rides
It's no wonder why Maui's County Fair is such a hit every year. From the Inverter to the Bouncy Fun House, there's something for everyone. The Zipper and the Pharaoh Swing were hugely popular, but never kept people waiting in line for more than 5 minutes. The fair has dozens of great rides from the tame children Carousel and Bumper Cars to the flipping madness of the Inverter.
All of the rides cost from 3-6 tickets. Tickets go for a dollar each, or 12 for 10 dollars. The rides vary in length, and the short ones are usually long enough, judging by the screams.
The Grinds
The food at this event is pretty standard for fairs. Cotton candy, funnel cakes, sausage sandwiches, and fried everything. Some unusual items that you won't find at other fairs would be the Hawaiian Mixed Plates.
Booths and other Fair Attractions
Of course one of the most fun things to do at the fair is cruise through the big tents to visit all the different booths and vendors. There were people selling Maui souvenir trinkets, pots and pans, children photography packages, jewelry, koa wood items, Maui County information, water purifiers, and much more. It's always fun to see what people are selling at the fair.
