The staff was very nice and the performers were all so talented. The set up this year was a little different and there weren't as many vendors. Also, this year they didn't "allow" purses in (even though the website stated otherwise and there many people with purses and backpacks). Updated communication would've been helpful. Look for parking on the surrounding streets. DO NOT PARK IN THE BUSINESS LOT ACROSS THE STREET, THEY STARTED TOWING CARS! It also gets cold once the sun goes down so plan accordingly. Thank you so much for all the good energy. Looking forward to next year!

What you want to do is walk around first then come back for the performances. I enjoyed the dragon on the floating water. Different dragons and monsters to ride for photos. I think I would come back here with a group. Definitely a good date event.

There are so many things here, exotic teas, lots of veggies and fruits, even this awesome soapmaker who made Calamansi Soap! Wow! I purchased that too! Plus, Olive Oil with Basil, very fancy here, juice stands, salsa and chips fresh made. A bit of soft music, plenty of parking and got one quite fast. Beef jerky and chamoy candy. Pizza ready for baking when you home, too. I prefer shopping locally and lines not long and boring like grocery markets and major chains. Establishing relationships with market vendors is above all else important. Visiting again!!

Another year, another trek to the Pomona Fairgrounds for the L.A. County Fair! This was our 8th…read moretime at the fair so I think it's safe to say we're pros at this by now! Always pay for your tickets and parking ahead of time for cheaper prices. If you're not into the games, always enter the fair by the Plaza De Las Americas - easy access to restrooms before you start your day, and King Taco always hits the spot if you want to grab a quick bite! For the 2026 fair, we were adventurous and saw a concert (actually two for the price of one) - Banda El Recodo and Banda Los Recoditos. All the years we've been here, we never saw a concert until now. If you get the opportunity, definitely check it out! Our seats were Section SS4 in Row S, so it was in the first section right in front of the stage. The chairs are tied together, so when seated everyone is elbow-to-elbow (not the most comfortable), but most people stand during the concert anyways so it wasn't too bad. There's a cheaper standing zone a little further away if you don't want to sit and there's bleachers all the way in the back if you really want some space. Honestly, no matter where you are, the music is going to be bumping and you'll see the artists on the big screens anyways. Since concert tickets include free admission to the fair, we went early to check out the usual sights. The Culture of the Low and the Slow is always a must to see lowriders and fantastic car art. They even offer a retro portrait photo booth this year (very fun)! The exhibit halls all offer different things and vendors. We like that they have a Big Free Little Library, so if you're a bookworm like myself it's worth giving it a look to see if there's any free book you want to take home. If you're feeling nostalgic, there's a Retro Row Exhibit that features KITT from Knight Rider, the DeLorean time machine from Back to the Future, and photo-ops (like a classic Pizza Hut, a video-store, an 80s bedroom, and more). Skate-R-Cade is also back, so if you want to play some arcade games or skate around on roller skates, this is the spot to look for! It wouldn't be the L.A. County Fair without ridiculous gluttonous food to clog your arteries with! This year we had a burrito and tacos from King Taco (the sauces are guaranteed to clean your sinuses), strawberry funnel cake from Funnel of Love (absolutely huge), fried zucchini and a buffalo chicken mac & cheese cone from Chicken Charlie's (personal favorite). A good number of vendors are part of the $10 value menu, so keep an eye out for those items if you want to get your grub on for cheap. The Longboard Bard & Lounge is bumping every night, so this is the spot if you want to have a few drinks and dance. Overall the 2026 L.A. County Fair is a good time and there's something for everyone here. Get your walking shoes on, use sunscreen, hydrate, and have fun!

The experience is exactly what I remembered when I last attended one 10ish years ago, but it does feel smaller than before. In any case, it's a fun place to go with your family (like I did this time around) or a date with your special someone. Many carnival games and rides for all ages, bbq and deep fried foods that fairs have been famous for (a lot of food items with pickles?), petting zoos, animal interactions, pig races, and a bunch of shopping stalls. One thing that really bothered me was how some of the sales people at the stalls go over line to get you into their stalls. I was stopped numerous times by sneakers cleaning people who wanted to demo and sell me their products. I was ok with them trying to get my attention, what I wasn't ok with was one of the stalls had one guy who came out to me while i was standing in the middle of an aisle and sprayed my 2nd time worn Balenciaga tracks without permission. They are new, I don't need you spraying chemicals and scrubbing on my new shoes! Now I had to stand in his station to clean off that one shoe. Once he was done cleaning that one shoe, he tried to point out the difference compared to my other one... they looked exactly the same after his product dried off 20 seconds later. I was quite annoyed. Except for the above moment, the rest of the day was pretty cool. I had a $22 funnel cake that was the size of a small pizza, and I was pretty good. I couldn't finish it (not even sure two people can), but it tasted like strawberry and custard donuts.

The Irish wolfhound were awesome. They were very sweet certified therapy dogs. We learned a lot about them. The entertainment was awesome.
