Can-Do Spirit: Free State Fair Fun on Hunger Relief Day
Bring six items of food, skip the ticket, and help support hurricane relief.
Want to score free entry to the N.C. State Fair while helping those in need? Smithfield Foods Hunger Relief Day is back on Thursday, October 24th from 9:00 am to 9:45 pm. Just bring six items of food, and voilà—free admission!
This year’s donations will support Hurricane Helene relief efforts in western North Carolina, so bring those plastic peanut butter jars, pop-top tuna cans, and dried fruit to lend a helping hand. Plus, you can even volunteer at the gates for more good vibes (and free entry).
No sponsorship here—just a knack for good causes, giant pretzels, and Peachey’s donuts.
