Lakefair is an annual five-day fair that has existed in Olympia, Washington, United States for over fifty years. Lakefair has many events including a midway of rides and games on the shore of Capitol Lake, as well as food vendors and local booths representing many groups, organizations and companies from throughout the community. There is a parade on the fourth day and a large fireworks display that draws crowds to the lawns of the Washington State Capitol as well as rooftops of downtown buildings. This display is set from Capitol Lake on the last evening of the fair.
