The governor has been clear about what people should consider about large summertime gatherings. His hesitancy over holding events calls into question whether the State Fair will be held this summer.

Gov. Pritzker says a decision on the State Fair and other events will have to be made soon, as contracts need to be signed.

For now, the Illinois State Fair in Springfield is planned for August 13-23, with the DuQuoin State Fair to take place at the end of August leading into the Labor Day weekend.
