traveling fairs

Mobile amusement shows

Traveling fairs are temporary amusement operations that move from town to town, setting up rides, games, and food vendors for a few days before packing up and relocating.

They typically appear at county fairs, carnivals, and seasonal festivals, bringing midway attractions to communities too small for permanent amusement parks: The traveling fair comes through every August during the county fair.

Also called carnivals or funfairs.
