Syracuse Winter Fair comes to the Expo Center at the Fairgrounds this weekend
(WSYR-TV) — During the winter, it can be difficult to find activities to enjoy due to the cold weather, but we have some good news! The Syracuse Winter Fair is back! Steve Becker, Winter Fair promoter, and Matt Masur, owner of Growth Mode Content, joined the show for a preview.
The is the sixth edition of Winter Fair where we bring summer fun into winter inside the Expo Center at the New York State Fairgrounds. There is a variety of food, midway rides and games. There is plenty of entertainment on and by the Amazon Stage, with vendors, non-profits and special features.
There's the Winter Fair Hoops where attendees will shoot free throws to win prizes. Donations are raised to support the Boys and Girls Clubs of Syracuse. Speaking basketball, some of the legends from Syracuse University Athletics including Gene Waldon, Rob Drummond, Lawrence Moten and Roosevelt Bouie will be there. The Le Moyne Men's college basketball team will be in attendance as well.
Outside there are Ice Sculptures with the theme of Summer Fun, sponsored by A-Verdi Storage Containers, DOT Foods and Woodford Brothers.
Perhaps the most exciting feature will be the live reindeer, which attendees can take pictures with for no charge. The reindeer is from Hanggi's Tree Farm and is sponsored by Your Local IT Dept.
There will be fireworks each night on Friday and Saturday at 8:45 p.m. to really make it feel like summer. Free parking will also be provided from AmeriCU right by the Expo Center.
The Winter Fair comes to the Fairgrounds Jan. 31 through Feb. 2. Learn more and get tickets at
