before it is operated. A ride inspector is hired each year by the State Fair
to oversee the Midway layout, set-up and operation.
Ride Requirements
Requirements for rides and attractions include height, weight and whether or not a child must be accompanied by an adult. These requirements are displayed at each ride and attraction, as well as the Midway Customer Services booth.
Rider Responsibility
Virginia State Law requires riders to obey all warnings and directions, and behave in a manner that will not cause or contribute to injuring themselves or others. Riders shall report all injuries before leaving. All injuries should be reported to First Aid.
