Can you believe summer has started and the Lloyd Ex Fair kicks off next week? Time flies when you’re having fun!
This year marks 120 years of the Lloyd Ex Fair and the Lloyd Ex is pulling out all the stops.
The four-day event runs from July 9 to 12. The annual parade kicking things off on Wednesday at 10 a.m.
The Source even rearranged next week’s production schedule to be a part of the action with our own float.
Make sure you say hello as we go by … we may even have treats for you!
The fair has been a highlight of my summer for the 11 years I’ve called Lloydminster home. It seems to get bigger and better each year thanks to the hard-working, dedicated staff and board members who plan it. This year is no different.
One thing I’ve heard from the public is disappointment due to the absence of free concerts. Well, guess what, the Lloyd Ex heard these comments and decided to include all live entertainment for this year’s fair in the cost of admission!
Rock out with Spandex Nation, High Limit, Garrett Gregory and an Elvis tribute performer … it won’t cost you more than what you paid at the gate!
The fair includes everything from trade shows, monster truck shows, karaoke, a street hockey tournament, science shows, lumberjack shows, goat shows, dog trials, all-things-equine and more.
So, I ask again, can you believe the Lloyd Ex Fair starts next week?
We’ll see you at the parade!
