The 2024 Manitowoc County Fair is quickly approaching as summer is in full swing.
The Manitowoc Fair has many events planned for everyone, Manitowoc County’s Fairest of the Fair, Mykayla Bell, explained on the WOMT’s Be My Guest program.
“The Manitowoc County Fair is August 21st to the 25th. We do have daily admissions and those are $10 for unlimited carnival rides, parking, grandstand shows, the music entertainment, the ice center show riding, exhibits, magic shows, pony rides, and so much more!”
Also featured on the Be My Guest episode was Jennell Shelton, the facility manager for the Manitowoc County Expo.
Shelton went into greater detail about some of the fair’s events, including host Lee Douglas’ live shows each weekday morning,
“I know you’re going to be there again with Be My Guest and Mykayla will be on, and we’ll have special guests. I think Louie’s Comedy Circus will be for the third year in a row, he is so great he does such a great job, he’s a part of our mini donut contest that we have for the young people that are there.”
She went on to explain more, “We have special shows for that, and we even have the Sea Lion daily show. And even the pony rides, that’s another thing I have to say, is included in your $10 daily admission, besides the unlimited carnival rides, the music, entertainment, ag adventure land. We have pony rides that the kids can go on and ride, and that’s a part of your fee.”
