OC Fair & Event Center Review

We had a great time while I'm testing at the OC Fair. All the information that you can get from the people pouring the tastings is amazing we were very happy with the service provided and excited to purchase some delicious tasting bottles of wine in the future

Wide open, lots of room, and clean bathrooms in the event center.

The best place ever. Ho doesn't like the OC Fair Great for kids and to spend great time with the family and friends And the food is always so delicious

Prices are way to high this year. Spent almost $200 in the 1st he there.

Lots of fun, food, and interesting things to do and see.

Festive atmosphere, BBQ what?!, pig racing, magic show, petting zoo... what a day!

Dont get the lobster roll. The marrow was the best.

It's the same thing every year. Should be FREE parking not be charging$15.

Horrible trying to park. Inside per ticket rides are exaggerated. Hard for a family of 4 to afford this place. Food is good and can have some fun, If you have the cash.

Food is great, rides are a little over priced for what you get.

The Winter Festival was a bust! It consisted of a lot of swap meet vendors and food stands with very few "Winter" activities. They had carnival rides for a lot of extra money similar to the OC Fair. If you buy the regular admission then every ride or the skating rink is extra. I can't recommend it.

I mean, it s a fair ground! I can t really rate the event I went too considering that is not a real reflection of the grounds themselves. Sorry !

great fair
alot food to choose
many rides to go on
clean
nice to people

Nice family fun bring a fat wallet though, not cheap!!!

Not bad but very crowded. Same stuff row after row. Similar foods. Similar products. But overall kind of fun.not something I would go out of my way to do if I wasn't in the area

Very crowded, but a great clean fair grounds. Great for families

This is great event to learn more about different pets and see many animals you wouldn't normally get to experience. This is also an excellent event for finding a new companion to adopt

This place was terrible although they had many parking spaces available near the entrance. They had all entrances block off by the police and they make everyone park far away and you have to walk a long distance to the fair. Fair prices are always expensive for food and their rides.

The exhibits were all closed down so you only get to see few small vendors along the way. Lot's of food spots and rides to enjoy.

I like going here but I don t recommend going here at night. Going here at night is fine but watch out because you might find a couple make out. It was true and I saw it with my eyes.

When the fair is in town, everyone should be there!

The Gem Fair takes place at OC Fair & Event Center this weekend from Friday to Sunday. 5/17-5/19

Visited every building and was basically just cookware and Sprint booths. The fair is going downhill.

There was lots to see and many events scattered around. I enjoyed window shopping at the vendor stalls.

Stopped by the Verizon booth at the OC Fair for a case for my phone and ended up getting a great deal on a tablet instead. Brandon from the booth did a great job.

Awesomeness... Great fun great food great drinks. Just good old fashioned Carnival Fun.!

My favorite place in the world. The food is magical.

Every event that is held here is usually a blast. Only downside is that prices can be high and events crowded.

Great selection of rides, food and things to see. Unfortunately the cost of the rides on the weekend was way over the top! $10.00 in tickets per ride?? Come on.. Bring back normal prices and I will return..

Went there for the orange county fair and had lots of fun, nice venue and surprisingly well laid out. Good times

Alright alright, i was just wondering about the hours actually, so I've gone to the fair today but it was close!!! They said the fair is not open 7 days a week...i can understand that but why the google doesn't say anything about it!!! Everybody had to go back!! What if i come from like malibu or santa barbara???

Lots of fun for the whole family. Well worth the drive down from Los Angeles. There are rides, food, games, shopping, and live music to name a few things.

TIPS:
Be sure to bring cash and credit card to avoid ATM fees . ATM's are everywhere inside the fairgrounds.

Rides require several tickets so plan accordingly.

Some kids rides required closed toe shoes.

Pack a hat and sunscreen

It's the fair, overcrowded and same stuff, but you gotta go once every couple years.

Came here to with a friend and we've had a lots of fun

Great place to take the kids or go just to go gave some drinks and food! The earlier you arrive the cheaper the admission.

This is where my business is so ya i guess im a little partial to this place. However it is a great place to shop, meet friends grab a beer and enjoy the entertainment in the cantina!

Wear sun screen it's a great place to enjoy rides, games, fun and Food. But you will get sun burned if you dont wear sun screen... trust me it's a must. My favorite part was the deep fried oreo. Try it you may love the taste.

Food was very expensive. Sausage sandwich and lare baked potato. Bottle of water and large Pepsi. $41.00!!!!

First time at Cars for a Cause car show. We'll attended. Nice to have clean restrooms, buildings to escape the heat.

Then again. It is OC.. lol
Hate 0c..

You watch pigs race... And win bacon. If that's not kosher idk what is.

Super hot , no misters this year?? Also still super over priced.

I ve been to serval County and city fairs and Thai one is for sure up on top of my list for best Fairs it was huge spacious and clean and had tones of beautiful ppl and the food I tired and had was also amazing I even left a pic of my favorite eat every time I can get it I go for it Krispy Kream donut burger it s amazing I d advise you eat it with another person it is a lot to handle lol but I can t wait to visit this fair again Wayyyy better then Kern county fair and just a tad bit better then La county fair but that s just me had a blast see pics

My daughter and I took my grandson to the fair. We had so much fun! Jayden is 4 yrs old and he rode the log water ride all by himself!!! He was so proud of himself! He went on several other rides with his mommy. Then we took him over to the games, he was so excited when he won his first prize! He had sooo much fun.!!! Then we got dinner, we didn't pick the right place!!! Oh well wasted $30.00, the tacos were terrible, the carne asada was more grissle than meat! The burrito was supposed to be carne asada and rice!! Beans and NO meat!! It really was bad!! Then we went to see the animal's, which was great! My grandson loves animals!!! He had a lot of fun!!! On the way out we bought him a toy that topped off the night!! What a wonderful outing.

They do a fabulous job every year, can't say enough good thing they do for 4 H.

Love the OF fair. It's part of my families tradition to go every year. Look forward to next July!

Great place to go and have some summer fun. Enjoy the food, shows, games. Just a great place to enjoy the day or evening

Love the food and entertainment at the OC Fair. Expect to spend alot of cash.

Typical fair environment. High prices and over crowded.
