Terms of use
Last updated 27 August 2026
Midway is not the Minnesota State Fair’s app. It is not
affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the Minnesota State Fair or the
State Agricultural Society. Where the fair’s schedule and the app disagree, the
fair is right.
Using the app
Midway is free. You may use it for your own visit. Do not try to break it,
scrape it, or resell what is in it.
The information in it
Schedules, vendors, prices and locations come from the fair’s own published
material and from OpenStreetMap, and all of it moves. Events are cancelled,
stands change hands, and a pin can be a building’s width off. Treat Midway as a
good guess that is usually right, and the fair’s own signage and website as the
answer.
Several amenity positions are read off the fair’s printed map, which is an
illustration rather than a survey. Those can be tens of metres out.
Walking directions
Routes are drawn over a walking network built from public map data. They do
not know about closures, crowds, construction, or which gates are open at which
hour. Watch where you are going, follow staff instructions, and do not walk into
traffic because a line on a screen went that way.
No warranty
Midway is provided as-is, without warranty of any kind. It is made carefully
by one person and it will still sometimes be wrong.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, the maker of Midway is not liable for
any loss arising from using it — including a missed show, a closed stand, or a
walk that took longer than the app said.
Attribution
Map data is © OpenStreetMap contributors, available under the Open Database
Licence. Weather comes from Open-Meteo and the US National Weather Service.
Food and event information comes from the Minnesota State Fair’s published
listings. Photographs remain the property of whoever took them and are credited
where they appear.
Changes
These terms may change; the date at the top will say when.
