It's fair time! This year the fair seems more open, which is nice! There use to be more things "crammed" in that are not there now and makes for a nicer walk when going around the grounds. There are alot of food choices too, different things this year, so that was exciting. They have the shuttle if ...

Alameda County Fair is a highlight of my summer. Yummy sinful foods to enjoy. Free concerts on the main stage nightly. Nearby Downtown Pleasanton is also to walk and dine.

Great fair with lots to do. Larger than your average city fair because of the horse races, exhibits and food trucks. Probably the largest I've seen in California but I don't usually go to fairs anyway so take that with a grain of salt. Parking is easy and accessible but also close to the fair so you...

Clean, somewhat pricy, but stage shows are interfering and main stage is very good, plus there is a $2 samples day which gives you the opportunity to have a balanced meal for the same price as a regular entree.

It was fun and there is a lot of stuff to do but it is very expensive but if you conserve your money it will be well worth it. There are many free activities to do as well and it is very family friendly. Sometimes the staff are very rude and obnoxious.

Not a bad place to park if you can't get a spot anywhere else. Big, easy access spaces but it's dusty when there is any kind of event it the fairgrounds. There was a weekend-long event there that lasted till 1130 at night. Also, no pool, no cable.

Dusty as hell, it's true. With the lack of rain combined with hot weather, it's to be expected. However, the grounds are otherwise well kept, clean, the bathrooms are nice, and the staff are pleasant. Just remember to bring nasal spray or allergy meds if dust/grit is an issue for you.
