Nowadays the fair is all about big, fast rides. But that wasn't always the case.

More than 100 years ago, it was completely different. Those who went to the fair discovered magic shows, new scientific inventions, exotic animals and 'miracle' workers. Would you like to know what things were like at the fair in the late 19th and early 20th centuries? This exhibition will reveal all. For families with children, there is a family trail through the exhibition.
