The Florida State Fair is a Tampa tradition that is over 100 years old. It lasts for several days each February at the Florida State Fairgrounds. Much like the Florida Strawberry Festival in Plant City, Florida, the Florida State Fair features livestock, music, food and midway rides. In addition to that, the Florida State Fairground's permanent collection of historic buildings known as "Cracker Country" is also open to fair attendees.

Sponsored by the Museum of Florida History, the Florida History Fair (FHF) is an annual, statewide activity that enhances the teaching and learning of history at elementary and secondary levels.
Florida joins 48 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, and the Department of Defense Schools as an affiliate of the National History Day (NHD) program, which was established in 1974.
Among these are self-directed study; the ability to conduct purposeful research and to identify, analyze, and interpret primary and secondary sources; awareness of past events and their impact on society; the ability to convey synthesized information in popular formats; and poise and self-assurance during contests with peers.
A statefair is a competitive and recreational gathering of a U.S. state's population.
It is a larger version of a county fair, often including only exhibits or competitors that have won in their categories at the more-local county fairs.
State and county fairs are famous for a variety of competitions.
