Adding a star because the staff was very friendly. First, this location is in the middle of a very low income area. Im glad I was going to a gun show and was armed. Andi realize that the show was put on by Great American Promotions, but that was the worst gun and knife show Ive ever attended. Ive seen more displays in a church dining room than were in this place. Im not even going into the prices of the vendors, but the show space was so small, there wasnt much to see because the vendors had little room, and there was little room to walk around. Neighborhood yard sales had more tables than they did. There were even a few vendors but even in the firearms market, I guess they were just happy to sell the tables. I was so frustrated, I even spent time in the parking lot trying to turn people away. GAP shame on you.
THE FAIR DIDNT MAKE IT TO SPARTANBURG SC THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF COVID-19, BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET A FUNNEL CAKE,IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!
My family and I enjoyed ourselves all three days Thursday-Saturday. Its an enjoyable and exciting event for the whole family. Whats even better is they added two extra photo booths this year and the only thing my wife and I was missing is the Jamaican food truck, maybe next time.
I always enjoy taking my great niece to the fair. They offered the mega pass this year for $20. The mega pass allows you to ride all the rides as much as you like. One little gem of the fair that some people may not be aware of is in the commercial building. For the last 6 years Emmanuel Baptist Church has had a both there where they give away free drinks, coffee, popcorn and snacks. Its great to get freebies at the fair. We enjoyed the fair this year and will be back again next year.
The fair is amazing!!! There are a good variety of rides, I didnt go on any but Im sure they are a ton of fun! It is super kid friendly and there are hilarious shows! It has such a friendly environment and my little brother loved the fire truck! Some of the set up for the winners and stuff in the different categories are a little confusing but all in all it is very well organized. There is a wide selection of good food and stuff is well labeled.... I definently recommend going.
Enjoyed as always. Dont agree with no wristbands being sold on weekend. But still had a blast. Food was great as always.
Not very big, but my kids always love this fair. If you like to play the pay to win games, this is the fair for you! They have about as many pay games as they do rides
It was a good gun show
Had an AWESOME time. Love going to the fair
They always having different events very nice
Great time with family, lots of fun activities to do,many choices of different cultures of food
This year was all right you can tell Spartanburg is thriving right now.
I enjoy playing the game Fat Albert every year
Kids loved it, we did too. Only 4 stars because there were a number of things they didnt have that they usually do.
We went the last day and werent sure if they would be taking things down but it was full effect! Everything was great and we saved money since it was the last day! We loved it! (from age 1 to 13, there was plenty for all!)
Everyone was super nice. Theyve done some updates to the fair grounds making it more inviting its expensive but what fair isnt.
We went on Tues evening and it was not crowded at all. It was clean enough but there was only one changing table in the restroom and my grandson had to share a table with another baby, not a problem except it was dirty. I believe it is overpriced but the kids enjoy it and there is police presence and security in the parking lot. We really enjoyed our evening at the fair.
Had a great time tho the Food was pretty bad and outrageously expensive. Games were definitely a rip off paying 5.00 for 3 balls, darts etc.Ive always enjoyed going to fairs but, this may be the last one I attend due to the expense.Greed is definitely playing a huge roll and its just not affordable for families anymore.
Great rides, good food, and lots of people. Plenty of rides like the ferris wheel. Lots of food, popcorn, funnel cake, burgers and fries, cotton candy. You might even run into family and friends along the way. A good time was had by all.
The gun show was a bust. 8 dollar admission to find retail were the best prices available. And a good bit was well over retail.
Staff was friendly. Enjoyed our time there
Gun show had many different offerings of firearms, non lethal defense, accessories for carry, knives, and so much more. It was great fun.
Did not go to the fair. Went to a gun show at the fairgrounds. Nice show. I enjoyed the nice people and the show
My kid enjoyed the animals but everything was pricey. In the end, time spent was mehh. Food at police station was great however.
It was fun rididing the rides we could. With my daughter being 8 mos. pregnant, she couldnt ride any.......BUT, my wife did buy a bunny. So all in all it was great.
Its was ok for senior citizens and not much to see but enough
Wonderful place to be with family ️
Omes once a year! Oh ano]
Year after year this event draws thousands of people. My wife and I enter canned goods from our garden as well as historical relics from days past. This past year (yard sale scroungers) (wanna be pickers) started entering junk, stuff without a date (replicas), and every piece of junk the could drag up there, which in turn will drive away real local with antiques passed down many generations because of the fairs oversight and not following rules ruining the only reason my family attends.
Its always a great time to go to the fair especially when the weather turns a little cool for you fresh cotton candy hot dog plenty of rides plenty of fun cant wait for it to come again this year if you havent tried to Piedmont Interstate Fair you need to at least try it once in your life
We went to the Piedmont Interstate Fair. We had a great time. The staff are great, the food was good. We had a great time.
Nicer than it has been in the past. Ive always loved the fair but this year was awesome!
This fair absolutely is terrible. No big rides. The food is nasty and most of all absolutely no entertainment in the grandstand. The buildings were 25%full of vendors
Sunday price should been low. Not alot ride open
If you visit the fair the grand stand is the place to eat great breakfast and lunch and supper they offer daily specials meat and veggies as well as other great food it a must stop at and try great friendly staff
My kids loved it.
Its not like it used 2b whrn I was a kid....
Fun for the whole family food rides and games and much more
Nothing more to say than it was Pride Day. What more can I say? Cant wait till next year!
Fine place for kids to come and play. Relatively inexpensive
My fiance an myself needed to enjoy a night out together and this place hit the spot.
1☆Another rating of garbage... :-(Every year at this event the tickets to be more money.. More Unbelievable prices go up...Ridiculous amount they ask for food and water ridiculous amount for the rides and games .. A ridiculous amount to enter just to walk around and look .. - we wont go back.. We DO NOT RECOMMEND.. $8.00 Funnel cakes9.00 Turkey legs. 7.00 Lemonade8.00 enterence fee.... YOU KEEP IT.. WE EONT GO BACK AND HOPE OTHERS DO NOT EITHER.. AS THEY STARVE EATING THEIR OWN FUNNEL CAKES, TURKEY LEGS, and polish sausages:-).. BYE BYE now :-P
This location gives people a place for partys or big events at a charge. The fair and personal things.
Disgusting bathrooms some unusable. Saw people fighting. Not sure what else I expect from Spartanburg
Had a great time all 3 day I came
A good old-fashioned Small Town Fair carnival. Prices a little high
Friendly Staff-Very accommodating to me as a vendor.
I love the new courts
Wonderful place to have you partys and the parking lot is big.
Very fun place you should go
Great place for family
Grandkids enjoyed!!
We had a wonderful time. There are a lot of great rides for my Toddlers to ride.
The fair was like use to beNot a lot of things to do you can tell how different things are in these times
Food was okay. Multiple rides had gross things spilt in the seats that got on my and my bfs pants
Not in the best neighborhood but has become safer over the years.
Fun! best place to eat was the GRANDSTAND CAFE!
Bring the dunking booth clown back!!!
Enjoyed the fair with my son, daughter-in-law, 2 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren.
Its a dirty place but fun
Always love coming here every year with my family
Good place to visit for events during the off season.
Lots to eat! I suggest shopping around at the food vendors though, some are incredibly expensive.
Kids had a ball. Lines were long but it was worth it. They didnt have bingo this year
Great advanced ticket prices. Good food. Good fun
Good time

Not as good as it was when I was younger.less rides and less entertainment.

Only go for the upstate fair. Watch out for the carnies. They tend to be grumpy.
Disrespectful to veterans.
