The 2025 New Mexico State Fair will see the return of the Country Store, daily Reds, Whites and Brews Happy Hours, and interactive exhibits in and around the newly upgraded Agriculture Building. The fair is set to highlight locally produced goods and beverages.
Happy hours are scheduled every day from 3 to 8 p.m. in the Agriculture Building courtyard. These events will feature wines and brews made in New Mexico, provided by the New Mexico Wine and Grape Growers Association and the New Mexico Brewers Guild. Visitors can find a wine bar inside the Country Store that offers samples of award-winning wines.
“The Country Store and courtyard offer a one-of-a-kind space to celebrate local flavors and ag education,” said New Mexico Secretary of Agriculture Jeff Witte. “Come sip, shop and explore what makes New Mexico agriculture so special.”
The Country Store, presented in partnership with What’s In Store, will offer local products such as root beer floats as well as merchandise like T-shirts and hats. The store's hours are Sunday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Friday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., throughout the fair.
