There’s no wrong way to play at the LA County Fair, where this year’s theme invites you to “Play Your Way” through rides, games, food, and nonstop entertainment.
From high-energy thrills to hands-on fun, the Fair transforms into a massive playground filled with experiences for all ages. Ride your favorites, try your luck at games, explore interactive exhibits, and indulge in classic fair food (yes, the deep-fried kind too).
Families can catch the crowd-favorite Stunt Dogs show, meet animals at the petting farms, or explore sports-themed activities and interactive displays inside the expo halls. Don’t miss the Skate-R-Cade roller rink before it rolls away, or the Concert Series featuring multiple nights of live music.
