Game and Parks exhibit offers state fair fun

Coming to the Nebraska state fair? Don't miss the Outdoor Encounter, Nebraska Game and Parks' exhibit!

This fun-filled exhibit has plenty to offer both kids and adults. Experience the 12-foot scenic waterfall, a diorama of the Niobrara River Valley and a 6,000-gallon aquarium featuring a collection of Nebraska fish. 

Try out our scavenger hunt, take some photos and selfies around our exhibit, enjoy some friendly competition at the indoor air gun or archery range, or play outside on the sky fort!

A Nebraskaland photo display offers images from across the state — and a special subscription offer is available for those who stop by. You also have the chance to meet our staff, ask questions, learn about upcoming fall activities — and get details on state parks and fishing across the state and the upcoming hunting seasons. We are here to help!

Make plans to come visit us Aug. 26 — Sept. 5, and bring the family!
