Eastern States Exposition, home of The Big E, has presented the finest livestock, the most innovative commercial, industrial and artistic developments, and the highest caliber of varied entertainment to the people of the Northeastern United States for more than eight decades. More than one million people now attend the 17 day Big E, an annual autumn extravaganza of entertainment, exhibits and agriculture - the culmination of a visionary idea first expressed by Joshua L. Brooks at the beginning of the 20th century.
We hope you enjoy visiting here for the animals, rides, food, exhibits, vendors and fun as much as we do each year!
When's the Fair?: Last week of Sept into October for 17 days
Who's at the Fair?:
Eastern States Exposition is organized as an educational institution under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Its governing body is a volunteer Board of Trustees consisting of representatives from each of the six New England States. These New England Trustees are distinguished civic, business and agricultural leaders.
