Nothing is sweeter than spending time with your family, and the Fair knows that! With tight budgets and a challenging economy, we know what you want: things to do with your family that are cost effective! With tons of great admission promotions (bring a few children’s books your kids have outgrown and voila, a ticket to the Fair…
Here’s some Shark Encounter info from our writer Xander. Dun-Dun! Dun-Dun! An audience sits on the edge of their seat, the churning rhythm of the sound track from “JAWS” playing at full volume as a light mist forms around the stage. The audience tightens in anticipation as the hydraulic door lifts, unveiling the 5,000-gallon tank…
Happy Monday, everyone! New blogger here – you can just call me “A Fair to Remember.” I’ve only been here a few days, but I’ll be the first one to tell you that there is so much “quacking” already here on the fairgrounds, like these geese at Penelope’s Duck Pond, part of Fairview Farms. They’re…
No, I don’t mean as part of our group ticket sales offer – I mean sharks are really coming to the L.A. County Fair (although it would be funny to see a group of sharks walking through Yellow Gate for a day of fun at the Fair – wearing their Dodgers caps, sunglasses, betting $2 on…

The L.A. County Fair’s favorite emissary, Thummer, brought a little light into the lives of children at Pomona Valley Hospital & Medical Center and Casa Colina Rehabilitation Center when he stopped by with some stuffed animals, courtesy of Ray Cammack Shows (RCS), the folks who bring the carnival to the Fair each year. Nice work,…
Ever see a bunch of short-legged dogs run in thick dirt? Very funny. The Wiener Dog races had several heats at the L.A. County Fair – all very funny indeed. One racer, Blazer from Newport Beach, well, it was a miracle he made it to the end. At 35 lbs, he was the biggest contestant…
