The Illinois State Fair officially opened Thursday with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the Fairgrounds in Springfield. The daily State Fair schedule is available here.

The theme of the Aug. 8-18 Illinois State Fair in Springfield is “It’s Showtime,” and fair officials have planned a full schedule of activities and events that live up to that catchphrase, including the unveiling of the newly-renovated Coliseum and other recent fairgrounds improvements.

Today, the Fair focus is on agriculture.
