It’s the first weekend of the always-anticipated West Virginia State Fair, which runs until Aug. 19 this year. There are plenty of jam-packed days ahead with live demonstrations, carnival rides, fair food, and concerts. Anticipate heavy traffic around town both before and after Grandstand concerts, which start between 7 and 8 p.m. each evening, with doors opening for concert-goers at 6:30 p.m. With several sold-out shows this week, plan your evening errands accordingly.
