    We've been coming here for years...whenever the fair is happening or RV shows, car shows or other events happening, we always try to go at least three times a year. The past couple years, the parking prices have skyrocketed! Last time I was here, parking was ten dollars and this year parking is twenty one dollars. It was more than the entrance fee to the RV shows! We loved the RV show. There were so many vendors and beautiful big and small RV's as well as travel trailers and 5th wheels! It was a cool day so we were there all day. The restrooms were clean, there was someone always cleaning, that was nice to see. We might be back for the Fair in May! Overall had a great experience at the RV show hosted here!

    Kaboom!! Get ready for the 4th of July extravaganza! Most of us think of the Annual County Fair, but the Fairplex is home to many events and conferences throughout the year, they even have a Sheraton Hotel on the property. Online discounts are available now on their website for the entertainment and fireworks show. I have attended and highly recommend this fun-filled family event. This year the event falls on a Friday! Awesome to have a 3-day weekend (for most of us). Doors open at 4pm. Other events during the year are Classic Car Shows, Canned-food drives and drive-thru food giveaways, Octoberfest, Reptile Show, Antique Shows, Artist Studio events, concerts and the popular Monster Truck Shows. Hope to see you there, sincerely, Rosemary..

    I have been to the Fairplex for the fair, car shows, expositions etc... I have never been disappointed. The most recent visit was for the 2025 Christmas Mooneyes car show. This show was amazing, there were a ton of awesome cars, great vendors and some good food. In between looking at the cars and vendors I sat in the stands and watched some drag racing. Such a great event.

    I attended the popular Thriftcon event on Saturday March 15th. It was an awesome event that happens once a year and only on one day. The building was filled with vintage, retro and upcycled items that were displayed and sold to lovers of fashion. I would appear that T-Shirts was a main focus and they had plenty of options for everybody. It was a total vibe. The DJ played music from various genres, it was a bop! There were also vendors with vintage albums for sale, and they offered discounts, which is a nice touch since visitors purchased more than one item. I will definitely attend Thriftcon again!

    If you are interested in buying a pet bird, bird food, bird toys, or other pets like turtles, kittens and puppies, this could be an option. It's $15 admission at the door which is steep. I love birds and believe these intelligent creatures should not be behind a cage, so I just came here to admire them. Met a lot of nice bird owners and got to meet their birds. Got to congratulate some new bird owners too. There's definitely fair food outside for purchase as fair prices. If you are like me you may even end up sad seeing all the parrots bunched up in a small cage. Luckily some parrots were able to just hang out outside. We biked there and escaped having to pay $18 to park there.

    Expo Center fairplex - I Thrifting

    This review is for THRIFTAPALOOZA the Fairplex. Attended on a Sunday 10:20am. We pre purchased our tickets online which saves money from "at the door prices" but you still pay a convenience fee per ticket. Nonetheless, I wanted to see what it was all about. Entrance was easy, no lines, showed my apple wallet tickets and cruised in. Lil' perks: *Cute light up "I (heart) thrift sign" was cute photo moment. *indoors on a hot August day *about 3/4 of the expo tent was full of vendors and plenty of food options! Note: this is more like an antique event imo than thrift. Lots of vtg Pyrex glassware/vtg clothing/vinyls etc. The first rack of clothing (non-vintage) was overpriced. Nothing had a price tag. I asked about pricing and the man said you can "ask about each individual item but all tshirts are appx $20" (GULP!) Moved on from that vendor. Many others were $5/$10/$15 in bins. Some had totes with lids if you felt inclined to dig through the totes. My treasures: *1960's samsonite luggage set (3pc) $40 *2 gold mid-century modern starburst wall decor $2 *Halloween decor item $2 For $40 entrance fees for 3 ppl, $20 parking I wouldn't repeat this experience. It wasn't what I hoped nor expected. Also, I'd recommend if you venture over for yourself to come Saturday and be prepared to deal with crowds. When we left around noon it was more crowded and hard to see the vendors items due to qty of ppl. Just go prepared!

    I went to Fairplex for a toy drive event and it was wonderful with so many vendors and kind people giving toy for kids in need. I have never seen so many toys giving in one day. The community was so nice and the best kind.. The DJ was awesome the best 80's music hits and people enjoy dancing and eating at great vendors around I was there with Journey of Love & Hope giving free food to the community. Thank you Fairplex for giving back to the community.

    The fact is : this is the Pomona Fairplex. Where, just like, the Los Angeles county fair, the location provides a variety of entertainment for all ages. Some will enjoy rv shows, others will come for the drag racing, and others will visit the variety of shows that are hosted, such as the annual 5k 10k and 1/2 marathons. From side shows to street food, the Fairplex provides an ambiance that's fun for everyone and great for family moments. Huge place, best to just use the parking area it offers. Pricy, but what can one do. Prepare to walk and a lot. Score is 3.75 a bit older location, but serves its needs. A modernization would be in need.

    No Values Festival 2024! Bill's here!

    I've been here for many events, mainly the L.A. County Fair, but recently for In-N-Out Fest and No Values Fest. This space is YUGE! If you're attending an event here, I would wear comfortable tennis shoes. I will say, I walked more in a day at Disneyland/California Adventure, but it's the heat that makes it feel like I walked double the miles. I attended In-N-Out fest last year and it was mostly outdoors. We were outside in October at around 11 a.m. and it got warm/hot fast. There was not too much to look at, but the heat was a real deterrent. They utilized the dragstrip and had cars racing down the line and had a huge indoor tent for some of the In-N-Out exhibits then they took up a large portion of the parking lot and hosted a huge car show. There was still a great portion of the property that was not utilized for this festival. Recently I attended No Values Fest and when I read it was going to be here I thought, "Great! We're all going to fry in the sun and on the concrete." When I got there the stage set-ups were on both concrete and grass which was nice AND they had seating in the bleachers available to concert goers. This made a world of difference and I had the best time at this festival because there was plenty of space and restrooms for everyone. I still did fry in the sun but it was short lived. Also, this place held a sea of people very well. The big event is the L.A. County Fair and I was going consistently for a while before the pandemic and enjoyed trying the food and seeing the hours of exhibits and entertainment this place had to offer. It's about a month long and I enjoyed getting the month long pass as I was able to see everything over the month as opposed to just one day. If you see an event is being held here, just know it's a lot of walking and the weather might be really cold or really hot or both, so dress accordingly. All in all, it's always an exhaustingly fun time at the Fairplex.

    2023 California Overland Adventure and Power Sports Show Great event Vendors both inside the Hall and outside as well. Great way to start out the upcoming Spring Season! Tickets were inexpensive pre purchased online. You can also purchase at the event. Sadly, like most events, parking was more expensive than a ticket. Enjoy a day this weekend with Family and Friends Thank You for reading

    Even though I live about 15 minutes away, I don't usually come out here much. I remember coming here for the LA County Fair many years ago, but not recently. Lately however, I've been coming here for the Holiday Half Marathon in December. This year, the start and finish line of the race was out on the In-n-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip. It was a nice venue as it was spacious and puts you in the mood to run a race! However, I wasn't too keen on paying the $17 for parking as I was only there for a few hours.

    I had my baby shower at Electric Loft just over a month ago, and have nothing but wonderful things…read moreto say about my experience! When I first requested a quote, I recieved a response very quickly from Pro, the manager, and he remained available for any questions I had until I was ready to sign my quote and lock in my event (and thereafter until shower day.) When you request a quote, you'll be sent a questionnaire about what you'll need for your event (time frame, services, furnishings, etc.) so you know exactly what you're paying for when you get your price. There is a lot included in the price, but other than some standard items like tables and chairs, you'll need to rent, or bring in everything else yourself or with outside vendors. I did all of my own decor, had my family and friends help me set up, and we catered Porto's. There is a full kitchen with a stove/oven, prep area and sink as well if you're cooking yourself, we used the oven to warm up potato balls and stored drinks in the fridge and it worked out great. You can rent a cover for the kitchen if it's not your vibe. Here's some of the concerns I had before booking and how we overcame them: Concern: the venue is on the second story in a historic building and is only accessible by stairs. Solution: It is only one flight of stairs, and there is a break in the middle with ample room for a chair or bench if guests need a stopping point. I informed my guests of this ahead of time and had my husband help anyone who needed assistance, everyone was able to make it work. It was a little but rough carrying all of our own stuff up, but many hands made light work. Concern: there is only one bathroom for an event of nearly 90 people. Solution: Honestly, this was only an issue for us at the beginning of our event when people were arriving from far away places. Once the initial rush died out, there was never even a line for the bathroom. Concern: the space is very plain. Solution: The space does not have many bells and whistles, but I found it charming and rustic, and there's lots of opportunity to really make it as dressed up as you want with whatever theme you can think of. Also, the natural light from the windows on both sides of the building made things that much more appealing. Concern: there is no designated parking. Solution: the Electric Loft team was able to save some spaces directly in front for me and my set-up team, and then parking is open up and down the streets as well as at the nearby park. No one had any issues, save for some later arrivals as there was some kind of art event at another building nearby. There may be a little walking involved, but not so much that it made anything impossible. All in all, everyone thought it was a great spot and I've been recommending Electric Loft all over the place, and I'll continue to do so. Also shout out to The Splendor Co for my photo spot!

    Great event space -- just a little on the warm side once the party got going. I would recommend.read more

    Kellogg House - Vargas Wedding 6/2022

    (61 reviews)

    There are definitely pros and cons associated with this venue…read more Pros: - The staff is SO attentive and helpful on your wedding day. They make sure everything associated with the venue runs smoothly and give VIP service to the bride and groom. The staff served my husband and I our dinner and both the venue coordinators asked my husband and I what alcoholic beverage we'd like to drink after the ceremony (and then went and got it for us!). The bartender gave us special attention by prioritizing us whenever we went up to the bar. - The venue is gorgeous and the food is amazing. We got so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was and how good the food tasted. - The venue coordinator responds promptly to email and never lets anything slip between the cracks. - You can do a lot of DIY at this venue to truly personalize your wedding. Cons: - This venue is reasonably priced for how beautiful and elegant it is. However, there are a LOT of upcharges associated with it. One of the upcharges that really bothered me was that you have to pay for glass wine glasses per setting. They only offer 150 stem-less glasses, but their venue has a capacity of 200, so why not carry your capacity? Our guest count was 164, so we had to pay for each wine glass at $1 per glass to have 164 stemmed wine glasses at each table setting. If you want the wine served to each guest (instead of pre-poured), you will need to hire servers at $25 each per hour to do so. - While the venue coordinator is responsive, she is not the warm welcoming coordinator that you might expect as a bride. Her responses are curt and to the point (and sometimes make you feel like you're bothering her), and it's not the customer service you'd expect for paying a significant amount of money to get married here. - If you plan to book a room block at the Kellogg West hotel, you can expect the absolute WORST customer service from the manager, Cameron. His email communication is extremely rude, and he makes you feel like you're a nuisance for bothering him. He gives bare minimum answers to everything and never once thanks you for your business. - You really need to hire a "wedding coordinator" with this venue. The venue coordinators make sure everything at the venue runs smoothly. If you want to ensure that your wedding day timeline runs smoothly, you need to have a wedding coordinator do this for you. Trust me, it's much better than your friend or mom having to do it!!! Overall though, I would recommend this venue. It was the perfect setting for our wedding day, and we had an overall positive experience.
