Mid-State Fair Announces Budweiser Clydesdales, Major New Thrill Ride Added To Entertainment Lineup

Budweiser Clydesdales to appear at 2016 Mid-State Fair In Paso Robles

The final countdown is on for the 2016 California Mid-State Fair, and the fair has announced some major new additions to its entertainment lineup.

The Budweiser Clydesdales will appear at this year’s fair. The nationally known K-9 Kings Flying Dogs Show will be featured, which has canines which do acrobatics.

And, for the daring, there’s a new ride called the “Hot Shot” which propels people into the air at speeds approaching 100 miles an hour. It’s a slingshot like a giant bungee, but doesn’t use rubber ropes. It uses a hundreds of springs to send people hurdling more than 200 feet into the air.

This year’s Mid-State Fair runs July 20th through July 31st at the Paso Robles Event Center.
