ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – It’s March, and that means we’re halfway to the New Mexico State Fair returning to Albuquerque. To celebrate, the Expo New Mexico Flea Market brought in some vendors to give people an early taste of the fun.
Vendors lined the state fairgrounds, giving people a sneak peek at some of the things expected to be seen at this year’s state fair, including food, boots, and games. While it’s possible the fair could eventually move from the Expo New Mexico grounds, for now, people say it’s good to get excited for this year’s fair.

The food is my favorite thing, personally. But it’s just amazing because you get to see the community come together as a whole, and when we get to the State Fair, it’s even more,” says New Mexico State Fair Queen, Kaitlyn Maria.
The Halfway to Fair Extravaganza will wrap up Sunday at Expo New Mexico. It goes from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m…
