The Tennessee State Fair and Exposition Commission was created by the
Tennessee General Assembly earlier this year to select and supervise a
Tennessee not for profit corporation for the purpose of operating a fair
or exposition, and to grant exclusive use of the name “Tennessee State
Fair” or “Tennessee State Exposition.”
The commission comprises nine members including the commissioners of
Agriculture, Tourist Development and Economic and Community Development;
the University of Tennessee Dean of Extension; the president of the
Tennessee Farm Bureau Federation; an appointee by the mayor of the host
county; and, three appointees by the governor.
