Minnesota State Fair is back after a one-year hiatus

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – The Minnesota State Fair is back after a one-year hiatus due to COVID-19 but fairgoers will see a new normal when the gates open on Thursday for the fair’s 12-day run through Labor Day.
Fair officials are strongly urging fairgoers to mask up inside and outside, though they’ve stopped short of imposing any mask or vaccination mandates as they gear up for over 2 million attendees.
