Get Ready for Some Spectacular Crashes at the 2014 New Jersey State Fair/Sussex County Farm & Horse Show! Annual Demolition Derby Crash-Up Returns August 3rd and 4th

AUGUSTA, NJ—Get your tickets early, because the Demolition Derby might just sell out! This hugely popular event draws crowds of over 2,000 people every year, and promises all the crashing, smashing, and demolition that the arena can handle!

The New Jersey State Fair Demolition Derby draw over a hundred cars and drivers from Sussex county as well as neighboring counties, and pit five or more drivers against each other on the dirt track in a grown-up, dangerous game of bumper cars! The last car standing is the winner, and in the meantime, the audience gets to enjoy the smashing, crashing, and sometimes flipping of cars. Each year brings back many talented drivers from the previous years, so be sure to check for your favorites.

Demolition Derbies have been a mainstay of State Fairs since the 1950s, and include old and new cars, large and small vehicles, and some of the most creative decorations you’ll never see on the road! This event is fun for visitors of all ages, and safety precautions are in place for our crowd and drivers.

This year’s crash-up is scheduled for Sunday, August 3rd, and Monday, August 4th. The event will be held at 7:30 both nights, and will continue, rain or shine! Watch the cars crash in the dry summer sunset, or watch as mud and rain add to the excitement!

Tickets are $13 for reserve seating and $11 for general admission, and are in addition to required Fair admission. Tickets are on sale until they are sold out, and may be purchased during the day at The Fair.
