I love a parade. Especially ones that involve the precision and artistry of marching bands. Yesterday, the L.A. County Fair’s Marching Band Parade Competition held its finals. In their first appearance in the competition, the Santiago High School Sharks from Corona won first place. The Sharks, also known as “The Boss,” took home the $5,000…
It’s our last Fair Food Friday! And my last weekend to eat the perfect fair meal. I’ve been dreaming about a turkey leg, roasted corn and a big Coke to wash it down. It’s simple, but exactly what I want from the Fair! So far, this weekly posting has mostly covered savory items. For this…
Our last weekend at the Fair is also our last cultural festival. We welcome this mini Asian marketplace to our grounds this weekend.

Jurassic Planet is getting a new dinosaur tomorrow and this one will not just be fenced in in our bio research facility–it will be on the move and walking among us! The Natural History Museum in Los Angeles has generously let their living, breathing, moving T. rex spend Friday, Sept. 30 at the Fair. I…
People all over the Fair now, join in! The Hit the Road Stage is making its way around the Fair for the last time this week. If you haven’t had the chance to catch this awesome traveling song and dance train, you will be delighted by the infectious ’70s tunes and the enthusiasm of the…
