Is there any better way to see the sights around you than from high above them? The AirCare Sky Tram only operates once a year during the Nebraska State Fair, but the experience is one that you’ll remember all year.

The Sky Tram's first year giving sky-high rides was 2012, when the fair's theme was "High Flying Fun." The ride was constructed at the Nebraska State Fairgrounds in Grand Island just two years after the fair moved there from Lincoln.

The tram stretches from the Pinnacle Bank Expo Center to the Cattle Barn - a distance of more than four football fields! You'll ride right over the midway so you can see all of the action from a unique vantage point.
