The 144th Maryland State Fair opens on Thursday and will remain open over three weekends at the State Fairgrounds in Timonium.  The fair opens on Thursdays at 5 p.m. and 9 a.m. on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Labor Day Monday.  The Maryland State Fair decided to move to a three-weekend format in 2022 instead of having it over one span of 12 consecutive days.
