Fair Extravaganza

Case Dining Hall is bringing the fairground to the table on Wednesday, October 14, with a lunch called Fair Extravaganza. It's a celebration of the NC State Fair, and the menu is built around fairground favorites—the kind of food you usually only find at the fair itself. Cotton candy is on the list, too, so you'll get the sweet side of the fair alongside the savory.

If you've spent any time around Raleigh in October, you know the NC State Fair is a big deal here. It's one of those things that marks the season, and this lunch brings a slice of that atmosphere into the dining hall. Instead of heading out to the fairgrounds for your fair food fix, you can get it right where you're already spending your midday break.

The meal runs from 11 AM to 1:30 PM, so there's plenty of room to swing by whenever your schedule allows. It's free, which makes it an easy addition to your Wednesday. You'll find it at Case Dining Hall, inside the Case Academic Center at 240 Jeter Dr. in Raleigh.
