For over 150 years, the Colorado State Fair & Rodeo has united its locals and neighboring communities for a summer festival full of entertainment and educational activities. Starting in 1869 after approximately 2,000 people gathered in Pueblo for a horse exhibition, the fair has been held every year except in 1971 during World War I.
