Trump's Great American State Fair suffered another evacuation on its closing day, according to an announcement.
In a post on X, Freedom 250, the Trump-backed organization that put together the fair, announced, "The Great American State Fair has been postponed," and requested that participants "please make your way safely and carefully to the nearest exit."
The Great American State Fair, which was hosted on the National Mall, has been panned by critics because of poor attendance. Last week, organizers were forced to suspend the event amid a heat wave. On Thursday, the fair was evacuated due to "severe weather."
The latest disruption came as the National Weather Service in Baltimore/Washington warned that a few storms could bring locally damaging wind gusts and isolated flooding across the D.C. area on Friday afternoon and evening.
Although the event is supposed to wrap up on Friday, July 10, Freedom 250 wrote, "We plan to reopen for the evening concert" despite asking everyone to leave. Organizers did not share why the event was evacuated and postponed.
