The State Fair of Virginia's contracted midway provider, Deggeller Attractions, Inc., received high scores from the Outdoor Amusements Business Association, qualifying it for OABA’s "Circle of Excellence" in 2004-2005.

Ride Safety: Since 1981, all State Fair of Virginia rides are inspected by a professional inspector certified by the Commonwealth of Virginia. Each ride receives a thorough inspection daily before it is operated. A ride inspector is hired each year by the State Fair to oversee the Midway layout, set-up and operation.
