Adriatic Animal Attractions

Animal Attractions act will be featured at the fair.



It’s a fine state of
affairs in the stadium
parking lot

It's late spring, and that must mean the Honolulu Jaycees 50th State Fair has seized control of the Aloha Stadium parking lot again.

The fair runs 6 p.m. to midnight Fridays, noon to midnight Saturdays, Sundays and Memorial Day, from tomorrow through June 20. The fair will also be open 6 p.m. to midnight June 17.

Admission is $3 for those 12 and older from 6 p.m. to midnight, or $2 from noon to 6 p.m. Children ages 4 to 11 pay $1.50, and those 3 and under get in free.

In addition to the usual E.K. Fernandez rides, food booths, a beer garden, musical entertainment and information booths, this year's fair features:

Bullet A tiger extravaganza with eight Bengals, including Golden Tabbies, white tigers and a snow-white tiger. The Bengal Tiger Presentations will take place three times daily, with the cats on display between performances.

Bullet Xtreme Air, an acrobatic thrill team from California that, among other things, leaps from 85-foot-high towers.

Bullet A NASA educational exhibit focused on the solar-powered Pathfinder and other craft from the Dryden Flight Research Center.

Bullet The "Inverter," a new ride that flips riders backward while hurtling them four stories off the ground.

Discount advance-purchase tickets are available. For information: 682-5767.
