BREVARD COUNTY • VIERA, FLORIDA – The 40th Annual Space Coast State Fair kicked off in grand fashion Saturday morning, treating more than 1,300 Kennedy Space Center team members from Comet of Amentum to an exclusive, high-energy experience at Space Coast Daily Park.

“The 40th Annual Space Coast State Fair welcomed members of COMET, who proudly support ground and launch operations for NASA’s Artemis program, which is gearing up to send the first people back to the moon since the Apollo program more than 50 years ago,” said Fair General Manager Scott Joseph.

“Thanks to Kathryn Garlock and the Comet of Amentum events committee, the 40th Annual Space Coast State Fair welcomed the awesome team members of one of the critical Enterprise Support Operations companies at the John F. Kennedy Space Center — Comet of Amentum.”

“Comet had the fairgrounds all to themselves this morning, but at 1 p.m., the fair opens to the public and goes all the way through midnight tonight,” Joseph added.

Known as Brevard County’s most popular family event, the Space Coast State Fair is open daily through November 16 at Space Coast Daily Park in Viera. The fair features an impressive lineup of entertainment, shows, and attractions — all included with gate admission.

Lucha libre is a form of professional wrestling that originated in Mexico and is characterized by masked wrestlers, aerial maneuvers, and a theatrical presentation that blends heroic and villainous characters in dramatic matches.

Spectators actively participate by cheering for the heroic técnicos and booing the villainous rudos. A key element of its tradition is the mask, which represents the luchador’s identity; losing one in a match is considered a severe and career-ending embarrassment.

All shows are included FREE with fair admission.
