1 SEE THE VIEW FROM TOP O’ TEXAS TOWER Sit back, relax, and enjoy the view from the Top o’ Texas Tower. At 500 feet, it remains the tallest tower ride in the United States and adds a new flair to the Dallas skyline. The view from the observation deck offers a one-of-a-kind look at downtown Dallas.
2 WORLD OF BIRDS PRESENTS: “SOAR!” Prepare to be amazed! “World of Birds Show presents: SOAR!” Steve Martin and his stunning array of birds from all across the globe have flown out of retirement and nested back into the historic Band Shell for an all-new, high-flying adventure. With a cast of new species, “SOAR!” brings the aviary world up-close to the audience with bird releases from the Texas Star Ferris wheel and flyovers just inches from guests’ heads. “SOAR!” is also filled with a wealth of knowledge regarding bird health, habitat information, and conservation efforts taking place across the world. Experience the spectacular show daily at the Band Shell.
3 RELAX AT THE STATE FAIR WINE GARDEN Exclusively offering wines crafted in the Lone Star State, the State Fair Wine Garden features three different wineries each day and offers guests the choice of buying a small taste, a glass or a bottle.
Serving as a scenic destination for fairgoers, the venue is centered around a massive oak tree, filled with beautiful flowers and mood lighting. On weekends, visitors can experience the musical talents of local jazz and blues bands. As a special treat, winemakers have been known to hang out and chat with fairgoers from time to time, sharing their expertise on refining the palate.
4 WATCH THE KROGER STARLIGHT PARADE AT THE HALL OF STATE This after-dark extravaganza is a fan-favorite, featuring a colorful assortment of illuminated floats, life-size puppets, stilt-walking performers and animated characters in ornate costumes. The bold and bright procession glides through the park nightly at 7:15 p.m. Don’t leave the Fair without seeing this amazing spectacle!
5 SEE THE MATTRESS FIRM ILLUMINATION SENSATION Set along a scenic reflecting pool, Mattress Firm Illumination Sensation combines fireworks and high-energy pop music with engaging performances from dancers and acrobats. This sensational production of synchronized pyrotechnics and special effects begins nightly at 8 p.m. Show up early to stake out the best vantage points along the Esplanade!
6 ENJOY THE EXHILARATING MIDWAY RIDES Calling all ride fanatics – we’ve got six new rides you’ve got to try: Dancing Clown, Tilt-a-Whirl, Satori Yachts, Crazy Surf, Beach Party, and Skyliner.

While you’re there, check out the all-new Contain Yourself(is) Experience. This spectacle is sure to be one of the best photo opportunities here at the Fair this year!
9 SNAP A NIGHTTIME PHOTO WITH NEON BIG TEX With a neon smile that “lights up the night,” Neon Big Tex is best appreciated after the sun goes down and his lights come up. Head over to Cotton Bowl Plaza − you just might spot a two-for-one Big Tex special. Make sure that a nighttime photo with Neon Big Tex is on your to-do list this year.
