Events of all kinds, from XS to XXL.

The New York State Fairgrounds is pleased to accommodate shows and events of all kinds and sizes.

• Consumer and trade shows can have the run of the place, depending on their size; all of our buildings—more than 500,000 square feet of space—and all of our outdoor spaces are available for the very largest shows and events
• We have a number of meeting rooms for private or public functions
• Training sessions may make use of our buildings or wide-open grounds
• The 200-seat Empire Theater (with classic movie-house pipe organ) is ideal for stage productions
• Smaller agricultural shows for animals such as rabbits, alpacas or chickens can find a home in one or more of our barns
• Medium-sized, shows like dog and cat shows, can make use of our large buildings to keep everything in one place
• Larger animal shows, such as equestrian competitions, can use our barns, outdoor rings, the Toyota Coliseum or the larger Exposition Center
• Our spacious parking lots are perfect for vehicle-related training or demonstrations
• Chevy Court and its open audience space can easily accommodate thousands of people and are optimal for music concerts and stage shows
• The Talent Showcase stage and backstage area (on the western end of the grounds) are suitable for smaller shows
