We are proud to announce the birth our newest Fair family member, a baby calf born last night in FairView Farms! We’ve sent Mom a congratulatory bouquet of flowers. She said they were delicious. The calf, all legs and ears, is just one of the new babies who will make their debut at the Fair.…
Tova Dian Dean is serious about her quilting. So much so that the San Jose resident entered seven of her quilts in our prestigious quilt competition and drove seven hours last night with her two 4-year-old twins in tow to see her quilts on display at the opening of the Fair today. Good thing she did.…
The 88th anniversary L.A. County Fair is open for business. The official ribbon cutting was this morning.

Unfortunately for Mr. Fair-ey Blogster, I love to shop at the Fair. It’s my favorite thing about the Fair (with the exception of eating a Hot Dog on a Stick). I love to walk through the shopping halls and see what interesting items I can buy and what’s new. Got my mom a tortilla warmer…
Wow! I had the opportunity to go through the Our Body: The Universe Within exhibit this morning, before the doors open to the public, and yes, my first reaction was wow! There was some trepidation on my part – after all, these are human bodies and body parts. But any anxiety I had fell away…

Discover facts like this and more when you take int the beauty of Mexico’s flora at the Fair’s Flower & Garden Pavilion.…
The L.A. County Fair is a food fantasy come true for Stef Andrews, who makes an annual pilgrimage to try every deep-fried delicacy, on-a-stick surprise and chocolate-covered treat we have to offer. So, it is only fitting that we announce Stef as the official 2010 L.A. County Fair Foodie! Stef, chief blogger at www.weheartthis.com, won our first-ever Fair…
I was walking the grounds this morning when I stumbled upon (or rather, it nearly stomped on me) this giant T. Rex standing outside the Jurassic Planet attraction. The Lizard King, as he is known, has “broken” out of building 8 and is trying to escape. You won’t want to miss this fella when you…
