The Nevada State Fair held annually in Reno is getting a new name.
Organizers announced Monday that the fair will now be called the Nevada Territory Wild West Fair.
Plans for the fair include highlighting life in Nevada as it was when it was a territory. The fairgrounds will include a mining camp and agricultural, living history and frontier living displays.
There will still be a carnival and rides, and the renamed fair will also include Wild West shows and displays of Nevada military history.
