New Foods to Try at the 2026 Amarillo Tri-State Fair

One of the main reasons people attend the Amarillo Tri-State Fair is the food. Fair food is one of the delights of going to the fair. You stuff yourself silly on traditional fair food like funnel cakes, cheese on a stick, corn dogs, and lemonade. All of those items are a must, but you also have to try all the new foods that are introduced at the fair.

These are the foods that someone has worked on all year long in order to introduce a new twist on a beloved favorite. Think about it: that's how the red velvet funnel cake was invented, or the fried Oreo. So with all the traditional food you are going to be eating at the fair this year, here are some of the new foods you have to enjoy as well.
