2024 Eastern Idaho State Fair sets new record for attendance

BLACKFOOT — The 2024 Eastern Idaho State Fair has just ended, marking another successful year filled with unforgettable moments and even MORE FUN. A record-breaking 254,209 people attended the Fair, surpassing the previous attendance record set in 2022. It is the sixth time in the past ten years that the Fair has set a new attendance record, solidifying its place as one of the region’s premier events.

The EISF would like to thank Grand Champion Sponsors Bingham Healthcare and Teton Auto Group, for their support and dedication. The Bank of Commerce also proudly sponsored the Grandstand Arena, where enthusiastic fans gathered to enjoy performances by the legendary rock band Journey, Jeff Foxworthy, and Craig Morgan. Their incredible shows were among the highlights of this year’s entertainment lineup and drew crowds from all over Idaho and beyond.

This year’s Fair continued to build on past successes with three nights of the Gem State Classic Pro Rodeo, a two-time Small Market Rodeo of the Year by PRCA. The Bank of Commerce Grandstand Arena also hosted fan-favorite events such as the Western Truck and Tractor Pulls, the Bull Riding Championships, and the always-sold-out September Slam Demolition Derby.
