This year’s Minnesota State Fair is packed with surprises: Weird Al and TLC headline, Rod Stewart’s spot goes to Hairball for ‘80s rock covers, and prosecutors are back with court orders to keep gangs off the grounds. A “Reject Show” honoring late artist Doug Flanders gives overlooked creators a stage, while foodies buzz about secret dishes like brisket cheese curd tacos and vegan tuna — plus a Star Tribune lip balm inspired by a rare native plant. New contests include a shortbread showdown and a tribute award for legendary baker Marjorie Johnson in honey sweet rolls — all while the fair leans into fresh twists and community safety.
