The Maryland State Fair is the annual state fair for the state of Maryland. It is held at the Maryland State Fairgrounds located near the intersection of York and Timonium Roads in Timonium. The fair is an 11-day event customarily beginning in late August and ending around Labor Day.

Address : 2200 York Road, Timonium[Lutherville-Timonium], MD 21093.

The first fair was held in 1878 and was known as the Lutherville Fair. The following year, 1879, the fair was moved to its current location in Timonium and was held from Sept 9 through Sept 12. In 1906, the Lutherville Fair merged with the Pimlico Fair and became known as the Maryland State Fair. The fair was suspended from 1943 through 1945 during World War II. In 1999, the fair grew to its current length of 11 days.

The early years at the Fair saw tents and wooden structures in use to exhibit home arts, farm and garden products, and livestock shows. Plowing and working oxen competitions were some of the popular but few attractions. Races were held at the track, and results were forwarded to interested horsemen at Baltimore and Alexandria, VA, by way of carrier pigeon. Food concessions consisted of sandwiches made by the farmers wives, and amusements involved sideshows, sack races, and greased pole climbing.

The Timonium Race Track is home to Live Thoroughbred Horseracing. Post Time is 1 PM each day. The 5/8th mile oval, which overlooks scenic York Road, will simulcast racing (for Delaware, Calder, Saratoga and Meadowlands) every day(see web site).
