Exhibitors contribute food and drinks to these special children. There are a number of non-profit groups, governments, organizations and others who are given free space each year to provide information or to raise funds to support their efforts. The Fair donates 2,000 free tickets to the Blood Bank each year to give to people who donate blood prior to the Fair. The Fair is the best entertainment value in the Central Florida area. Where else can you hear name entertainers, see a big, free circus, a petting zoo, laser show spectacular, chainsaw artist, lumberjack show, racing pigs and much, much more for the price equal to what some charge just to park or less than most movies cost.
Parking is free.
