Iowa State Fair approves higher adult admission and fireworks
Des Moines reports the Iowa State Fair board raised adult gate prices from 2.50 to 3.00 to boost revenue by about 150000. The extra funds finance free talent entertainment and a 10000 fireworks display as part of a 27 million budget, with a projected 145500 surplus by December 1. The board delayed decisions on livestock prize cuts and arts activity plans while considering higher stall prices.
