Solaren Assisting with Security Effort with Wilson County & Tennessee State Fair

The inaugural Wilson County Fair–Tennessee State Fair starts Thursday and continues through Aug. 21 at the James E. Ward Agricultural Center in Lebanon.

The Wilson County Fair typically draws around 500,000 total visitors.

The state fair has brought in around 110,000 to 120,000 in recent years to its event in Nashville. Neither fair was held in its traditional form last year because of COVID-19. This year however, show potential for a reviving much needed atmosphere for all parties involved.
