The annual T-Town State Fair is set to return to Tuscaloosa from May 1 through May 11, 2026, bringing 11 days of rides, games, and classic fair food to the city.
The fair will take place at 900 Skyland Boulevard and will once again be operated by Kissel Entertainment, a traveling carnival company known for its amusement rides and midway attractions.
Families and visitors can expect a full lineup of entertainment, including thrill rides, kid-friendly attractions, carnival games, and a variety of food vendors serving traditional fair favorites like funnel cakes, corn dogs, and more.
Organizers say the event is designed to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for the community. Several policies will be in place throughout the fair’s run. All attendees under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian, and a clear bag policy will be enforced. Small clutches and diaper bags will still be permitted.
Advance ticket options will also be available online, giving attendees an opportunity to save money compared to purchasing tickets at the gate.
The T-Town State Fair has become a popular spring tradition in Tuscaloosa, offering residents a chance to gather, enjoy local entertainment, and create lasting memories with family and friends.
For those planning to attend, organizers encourage early arrival and taking advantage of online ticket deals to get the most out of the experience.
