September 27 through October 20, 2024

The State Fair is celebrating 24 days of fun in 2024. Riding DART means more time enjoying the fair -- and less time getting there. From pig races, fried food and Creative Arts entries to concerts, football games and Midway action, the State Fair has something for everyone.

Also, you can park for FREE at any of DART’s Park & Ride stations. Find your most convenient parking options here.

If you’re riding DART Rail or the Trinity Railway Express (TRE) to downtown Dallas, you can transfer easily to Green Line. From downtown Dallas, board Green Line trains marked “BUCKNER,” “LAWNVIEW,” or “FAIR PARK”:
