North Yellow Lot (Camel Lot)
Official on-site public parking — the North Yellow Lot off Larpenteur Ave at Snelling, serving Gate 2. $25/day, cash or card, ADA spaces + Metro Mobility and a bike lot at the Hoyt/Snelling corner. Known historically as the Camel Lot.
The 2026 Minnesota State Fair ended on Monday, September 7, 2026. Everything below describes the 2026 fair, which is the most recent one I hold — stands, buildings and rides carry over year to year, but dates, prices and schedules do not. I update it when the fair publishes for 2027. The 2027 fair runs August 26 – September 6, 2027 — 293 days away.
