What this is

A New York fairs and festivals directory run as an independent publication. It is not affiliated with any county fair, festival organizer, or tourism bureau, and no ticket is sold through it.

Where the information comes from

Each New York listing starts from a published source page. The record keeps the address of that page, the type of source, and a provenance date. That date is a check date only when the record carries a direct check (see below). New York events vary widely in size, so the organizer's page is the place to confirm current dates, hours, and prices.

How listings are checked

A check mark on a fair page appears only when the record carries a dated direct check. Everything else is labeled as listed from a published source. The methodology page explains the checks, how ended events are handled, and how guides are written.
