Where is NewsChannel 9 located at the Fair?
NewsChannel 9 broadcasts live from the Fair at the entrance to the Expo Center.

The Expo Center location puts NewsChannel 9 almost right in the middle of the Fairgrounds and allows the broadcasts to use the iconic Midway as the background.
Since the early 1980s, the station was set up along Chevy Court near the Dairy Products Building. In 2017, the state decided to take down the iconic white wood dome that was the focal point of the broadcasts for decades.
Join the Storm Team for weather school at our location outside of the Expo Center at 10 a.m. Saturday 8/23
Each member of the Storm Team will give a science demonstration at 10 a.m. and 11 a.m.
Jim Teske: Egg into a bottle to demonstrate change in pressure
