New Attractions Coming To Minnesota State Fair

ST. PAUL, Minn. (WCCO) -- The great Minnesota get-together is just 36 days away and counting.

There always seems to be new attractions and foods to make the Minnesota State Fair fresh and inviting. This year is no different.

For $20, riders at the X-Zone will teach you the basics of skateboarding and BMX. You can also get breathtaking views of the fairgrounds by taking a ride on the stratosphere.

The Luminarium is also new this year. You'll walk through an inflatable structure filled with light and color. And you won't want to miss the Lasertainment's Laser Hitz Show each night at 9 p.m.

The Minnesota State Fair starts Aug. 23.
