Temperatures may be dropping, but it's no time to hibernate. As summer gives way to fall, Tulsa's festival season remains in full swing. Our real estate agents share their must-see events that should be on your list as well.

• Tulsa State Fair - Expo Square, 4145 E. 21st St., Tulsa, OK 74114
  With upwards of one million people attending across 11 days, the Tulsa State Fair holds the title of the city's largest family-friendly event. It's hard to believe this mega-festival started in the 1890s as a modest street fair. In addition to dozens of thrilling rides and food stands featuring everything from Cajun egg rolls to peanut butter soup, the fair offers spectacular entertainment. Five different venues will have live music, and other attractions include Disney on Ice, Perondi's Stunt Dogs and Diving Show, and Sea Lion Splash. The Tulsa State Fair takes place from 9/25 to 10/5. Visit the website for the full schedule and pricing.

There's also a half-marathon as well as 5K and one-mile run/walks. In honor of the marathon's 20th anniversary, medals will bear the likeness of the Blue Whale of Catoosa, a Route 66 landmark.
