OC Fair & Event Center

Each summer, the OC Fair takes over Costa Mesa with larger-than-life fun. Think big flavors (deep-fried everything, anyone?), big sounds (hello, live concerts), and big energy across 150 acres of rides, games, exhibits, and live entertainment. It’s a place where childhood nostalgia meets new memories, and the only thing more outrageous than the food is the fun.

More than a fair, it’s a full-on summer tradition. You’ll find live performances at Pacific Amphitheatre,
art and agriculture competitions, unexpected photo ops, and enough food to fuel a full day of
exploring. Whether you’re here for the carnival thrills, the craft brews, or just to people-watch while snacking on something deep-fried and delicious, the OC Fair is a celebration of all things bold and
totally Costa Mesa.
