The Minnesota State Fair Campground offers a unique experience of staying up close at the Great Minnesota Get-Together. Due to extremely high demand we prioritize accommodating as many campers as possible. Unlike other campgrounds, you won’t find amenities like campfire rings or recreation areas, however, step outside the gate and explore 322 acres of fair fun – endless entertainment awaits!
Spots in the campground are secured via a reservation system. A reservation must be completed and confirmed prior to arrival. No person under 18 years of age may register for or occupy a space unless accompanied by a parent or guardian. Pets are not allowed. Please be aware since campground space is extremely limited, reservations will be accepted as space allows.
Daily camping rates are determined by the width of campsite required: $30 for standard, $35 for non-slide units wider than 8 feet, and $45 for slide-out campers. Pulling vehicles are free of charge. Pulled and extra vehicles are $20/day.
Campground fees do not include admission to the fair. Tickets may be purchased at the admission gate leading from the campground onto the fairgrounds (card) or at Gate 2 (cash).
Sites are assigned to comply with Health Department regulations. All parking of campers is done under the direction of campground personnel. A 7-foot separation must be maintained between units. We are unable to accommodate slide-out campers wider than our 14’ site dimensions allow. Misrepresentation of camper width will result in the loss of campsite. Pulling and extra vehicles will not fit on most sites, any additional vehicles will be relocated to the North Yellow Lot (formerly Camel Lot).
All sites have guaranteed 20 amp service. There are three shared dump stations, temporary water hookups, restrooms, showers and coin-operated laundry. Campers must use 12/3 electrical cords between their camper and fair outlet boxes.
