Fair season is well underway, but there are a ton still to come in the coming months of 2023.

The folks at Mainefairs.org have released the scheduled dates for the 2023 State Fair season, including the iconic Bangor State Fair, which cranks things up from August 3-August 6, and the Blue Hill Fair, August 31st-September 4th.
