Minnesota State Fair Family Fun Map

Maximize the memories and minimize the meltdowns at the Minnesota State Fair!

FFTC has created a super helpful tool – we hope! – to do just that. We offer this labor of love, along with the rest of our 2025 GUIDE TO THE MINNESOTA STATE FAIR, to make the great get-together more accessible, less overwhelming, and all-around as family-friendly as can be.

If you are interested in a printable version, scroll to the bottom and click for the PDF to print.

Click around in the map to find clusters of the best family activities at the Fair as well as the closest recuperation rest spots,  and use the Quick Guide to Family-and-Allergen-Friendly Foods for a convenient way to find food close by when it’s time for a snack and a break from all that fun.
