Organizers of the Alabama National Fair are hopeful that events can return to normal this fall, after they had to make adjustments last year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The Kiwanis Club of Montgomery announced today that the 68th annual Alabama National Fair will be held from October 8-17 at Garrett Coliseum, with the popular racing pigs, the sea lions splash and the Zerbini Family Circus all coming back.
“I think this year is more normal than people realize,” Alabama National Fair Executive Director Randy Stephenson told Alabama News Network. “It’s just the expectations and what is going to happen, we don’t know. There is a little unknown, but we know we’re going to be able to have the fair,” he said.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way people communicate with face to face interactions being limited.
The Alabama Department of Veterans Affairs is no exception. ADVA has had to adapt to the pandemic with the launch of virtual hearings in its Appeals & Review Division.
Before the pandemic, an Alabama veteran had the options of appealing a claim by traveling to Montgomery for an in-person hearing, have a team travel to their home, or have no hearing at all.
The new program allows the Veterans Affairs office to conduct the hearings virtually and in a timely manner. The pandemic has forced in-person hearings, either in Montgomery or at a veteran’s home, to no longer exist.
