New Attraction: Gate 9 on Como Avenue – Redeveloped

Gate 9 on Como Avenue – Redeveloped

Fair guests who enter the Great Minnesota Get-Together on the south side will experience a new welcoming Gate 9 area – wider, more accessible entrance and exit gates; expanded bike lot; added sidewalks; spacious wheelchair, scooter and stroller rental area; iconic OnlyInMN photo op; and benches and art sculptures.

Details

The popular free bike lot formerly located at Snelling and Como avenues will move west to the Gate 9 area and become larger to accommodate more bikes.
The State Fairgrounds Ticket Office will continue to sell tickets at this gate area.
Gate 9 will continue to be the south drop-off and pick-up stop for Metro Mobility, taxis and the free Oscar Johnson Arena Park & Ride lot exclusively for those with valid disability parking certificates or license plates and their companions.
The plaza area just inside Gate 9 will be the future home of a unique and stunning public art installation to recognize donors and greet fair guests. Stay tuned for details in the coming months. Support provided by the Minnesota State Fair Foundation.
