The 2011 San Diego County Fair closed on July 4th. Stay tuned for information about next year's fair!San Diego County Fair The Del Mar Fair (now officially the San Diego County Fair - the 6th largest fair in the US!) is always great entertainment and has been a tradition since 1880. Now it is the largest annual event in all of San Diego, bringing in more than a million guests each year. My first job at age 12 was at the Fair and I worked there every summer through college. I remember as a kid seeing some of the top names in rock & roll at the fair and they made quite an impression on me. In fact, one of the best things about the fair is the live entertainment, since most of the concerts and events are free with admission. The fair continues to bring popular contemporary acts to the stage each summer, with this year's lineup bringing you, among others, Pat Benatar, Bruno Mars, Weird Al Yankovic, The Beach Boys, and Joan Jett. The San Diego County Ford Dealers Paddock Concert Series is scheduled to include tributes to Bon Jovi and Michael Jackson and performances by Tony Lucca, Elliott Yamin, Paul Revere and the Raiders, A Flock of Seagulls, The Music of ABBA, and many others.
The San Diego County Fair is the largest annual event in San Diego County and the sixth largest fair in the United States, drawing more than 1.2 million visitors each year.
