PUEBLO, Colo. — As part this year’s reimagined Colorado State Fair, several virtual competitions will be offered to keep the spirit of the State Fair alive and encourage fun, creative competition and involvement from participants across Colorado.
All contests are free to enter and there are no physical or in-person components to the competitions. Winners will be chosen by a line up of celebrity judges and announced on the Colorado State Fair website and on the State Fair’s Facebook and Instagram sites.
