Join the Fun at the Sacramento County Fair May 25-29

Celebrate good old-fashioned Americana by coming out to the Sacramento County Fair, May 25-29, at Cal Expo for the Memorial Day weekend. Food, fun, and a full line-up of entertainment will delight the whole family.

There will be something for everyone, including these must-see attractions: Lil’ Monster Truck & UTV RZR Racing, Stars & Stripes Invitational Bull Riding, and Tractor Pull. Be sure to visit the Great American Petting Zoo where kids can interact with hand-raised animals and submit a name for the brand new baby donkey. There will also be a corndog eating contest, kid’s talent auditions, baby races, music, livestock competitions and exhibits – and of course, the carnival rides!

Sacramento County is a proud sponsor of the 2017 County Fair: “Let’s Eat, Have Fun and Celebrate Red, White and Blue!” Admission for kids 12-and-under is free every day of the Fair and adult admission is $6.00.  Monday, May 29 is Military Appreciation Day.
