HISTORY OF THE ILLINOIS STATE FAIR: Springfield has been home to the Illinois State Fair since 1894, but the city paid a high price for the distinction. The first two state fairs, in 1853 and 1854, were held at the original Sangamon County Fairgrounds in Springfield, an area now occupied by DuBois Elementary School and Sacred Heart-Griffin High School. The fair moved around Illinois for the next 40 years, to places like Alton, Centralia, Chicago, Decatur, DuQuoin, Freeport, Jacksonville and others. When state officials decided in 1893 the fair needed a permanent home, the contenders were Peoria, Bloomington, Decatur and Springfield. To win the competition, Springfield had to offer 156 acres of land (again giving up the Sangamon County Fairgrounds, by now relocated to the city’s far north end), $50,000 in cash, fencing, sewers, streets and free water. (The water deal was dropped after World War II.) The first fair on the current site was held in 1894, the same year the Exposition Building was constructed. The fairgrounds acquired another 210 acres in 1924, for the current total of 366 acres. In addition to the Expo Building, existing fairgrounds buildings and their construction dates include: * Grandstand, 1896, rebuilt in 1927 * Artisans Building (originally Poultry Palace), 1896-97 * Coliseum, 1901; expanded in 1903, remodeled in 1948 and 1955 * Main Gate, 1910 * Sheep and swine pavilions, 1912 * Brick horse barns, 1913 (Livestock Center constructed after a fire in 1984) * Hobbies, Arts & Crafts Building (originally Conservation Building), 1918 * Beef and dairy cattle barns, 1927 * Emmerson Building, 1931 * Junior Activities, Visitor Services buildings, late 1930s * Illinois Building, 1940 * Illinois Department of Agriculture headquarters, 1981 * Orr Building, 1990 * Illinois Department of Natural Resources headquarters, 2002 The fair has changed in many other ways, too. As an excellent Cook-Witter Report history recounted in 2002: “Until 1907, carnivals were not allowed at the Illinois State Fair because fair management wanted to maintain a dignified atmosphere. … When the fair closed at dark, fairgoers then proceeded downtown to the festively decorated square where merchants organized carnivals highlighted by vaudeville and circus acts, rides, food and music. “Initially, wooden arches that could be set up and torn down during special occasions like fair week or welcoming home troops were placed at each corner of the square. Wooden arches gave way to permanent steel ones, which were eventually pulled down in 1921. The arches, brought from the Chicago’s World Fair, were wrapped in flags, bunting and lights to celebrate special events. Strings of lights would outline the Court House (Old State Capitol) and stretch from the dome to the arches. “A midway of tent shows and rides in a wooded glen named “Happy Hollow” was finally allowed at the fairgrounds beginning in 1907, rendering the downtown carnivals unnecessary.” The evolution of the fair was summed up in the introduction to “Illinois State Fair: A 150-Year History” by Edward Russo, Melinda Garvert and Curtis Mann (2002). “When the Illinois Agricultural Society proposed an annual fair in the 1850s to help educate farmers and advance farming methods, little could organizers have realized that it would grow to a major cultural and entertainment venue for the state. The small harvest festival grew not only into the state’s most prominent agricultural event, but eventually brought world class entertainment, auto and harness racing and carnival thrills of every kind to visitors.” !!!ATTENTION!!!
