The biggest thing to do this weekend is to head to the Puyallup Fair, which has more going on than you can see or do in a day, or a weekend. The fair is much bigger than just the carnival, rides and livestock barns. It’s also the last weekend of the fair, so it’s now or never!

The Steve Miller Band is the weekend concert headliner. This is a great nostalgia show. There are 4-H dog and horse shows, free pedal tractors for the tots to ride, a live cooking show, cheerleading exhibition, showings of Beauty and the Beast, dance groups, a science show for kids, exhibits and demonstrations, and so much more.

If you’ve already done the fair, there are plenty of other things to do around the Sound.
