Halloween is right around the corner and grocery stores have already lined their shelves with an abundance of candy. Just in time for this sugar-loaded holiday, Hershey announced plans to launch a new candy brand for this first time in 30 years. Candy favorites like Hershey’s Kisses, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Kit Kats and Almond…
www.oktoberfestatfairplex.com We spent most of our weekend at Oktoberfest and had a blast. We danced the Chicken Dance, watched competitions of all kinds and celebrated in true German fashion. We had so much fun we decided it was time to share some more Fairplex love. It’s time for: Oktoberfest Giveaway Round 2 Just like last…
Fairplex is the master of transformation. Sure the Staples Center might be able to switch from an ice rink to a basketball court on the fly, but have you ever seen our moves? In 10 days we have transformed the Latin themed Plaza de las Americas into a Bavarian wonderland and the Living Library of…
Fairplex is an extremely diverse campus that transforms from a full-blown Fair to an off-road expo to a blacklight obstacle course… and that was just one weekend. Our next major event is Oktoberfest, opening this Thursday, Oct. 10th and running every Thurs-Sun until Oct. 27th. Oktoberfest 2012 What was once the building that housed the…

Oktoberfest is all about the beer. But you knew that. What you might not know is that we are bringing the beer drinking experience to a whole new level at this year’s event. In addition to our enormous steins of beer we will also have the iPourIt Craft Beer Experience available at Oktoberfest. If you…
The week following the L.A. County Fair always trips me out. During September a walk to the farm means encountering thousands of Fair guests and smelling deep-fried temptations at every corner. Once the Fair is over it feels like a ghost town (albeit a beautiful, peaceful one.) The farm is no longer hidden by food…
Photo courtesy of Dan from freedigitalphotos.net We just wrapped up production of the 91st L.A. County Fair. It was crazy. It was fun. We had a blast. But now as the carnival rides are taken down and the scent of deep-fried food drifts away our attention turns towards Fall: crisp blue skies, changing leaves…
Mashable Augmented reality tattoos: While some tattoos are intricate, detailed and captivating, they are motionless. 2-D. Except for when you put a screen in front of them. Alison Bennett’s “Shifting Skin” exhibit displayed photos of tattoos and used several layers of augmented reality to transform body art into a 3-D experience. Gallery guests only need…
