YORK, Pa. — The York State Fair was canceled this year, like many other events during the COVID-19 pandemic. That left a void for many fans of the Fair's many delicious food offerings.
If you're one of those who feels a hole in their heart -- or their belly -- the York State Fair has some good news.
You'll have a chance to satisfy some of those cravings next month at the York State Fair Food Festival.
The event, set for Oct. 1-4 at the York State Fairgrounds, will offer to-go orders of some of the York State Fair's staples: funnel cake, deep-fried Oreos, street corn, fresh-squeezed lemonade and more.
Admission and parking are free, and masks, social distancing, and other COVID-19 safety measures will be in place. There's a limit of 250 people on the grounds at one time, organizers say.
The grounds will be open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 1 through Saturday, Oct. 3, and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 4.
