After Knoxville, there was New Orleans in 1982 but that was the last one in the USA. In 2002, the USA's participation was withdrawn from participation unfortunately after Congress had not paid membershipfor for the two year.

Television has made World Fairs obsolete; here's no longer any point in spending millions to put up a pavilion to show off new technology and products when it can be beamed straight into people's homes for a fraction of the cost. Maybe if they coordinated it with the Olympics...
