There’s much more to EXPO New Mexico than just the annual State Fair – much , much more! In Fact, EXPO New Mexico hosts well over 200 interim events during any given year not including the Fair or weekly Flea Market. During peak months, as many as six separate events can take place simultaneously in different venues across the grounds on any given weekend, each drawing several thousand visitors, making EXPO New Mexico the only true multi-use facility in the State of New Mexico. The range of events EXPO hosts includes everything from monster truck exhibitions to fine art shows, and everything in between. EXPO’s dedicated full-time staff ensures peerless customer service to promoters and guests, who infuse millions of dollars annually into the local economy. You simply won’t find more – or a more diverse array – family friendly events taking place in a single place anywhere else in New Mexico. No other venue in the state even comes close.
