The S.C. State Fair is committed to providing a safe experience for its patrons. This year’s fair will implement a new mandatory clear bag policy — similar to those that have been put in place throughout Columbia and across the country, complying with a new level of security expected of large, heavily attended events and festivals. Visit SCStateFair.org to learn more about the clear bag policy, additional safety guidelines, and the latest COVID-19 precautions and policies.
