Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton

Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton

We are not able to attend the Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton this year, so I can’t give a personal review, but my friends that have visited recently, all reported positive experiences. The Alameda Fair has a nice long run, compared to many other county fairs, and will go through July 7^th, although they are closed on Mondays.

If you have been to the Alameda County Fair this year, leave a comment on your thoughts, and any must see attractions there!

Contra Costa County Fair 2013

We have missed the Contra Costa County Fair in Antioch the last couple of years because it has been moved so early in the year. It feels strange to have a county fair while school is still in session.

The fair runs from Thursday May 30th through Sunday June 2nd.

Opening day, Thursday the 30th, Seniors (62 and over) and folks in the military receive free admission. You can also get in free if you bring 3 canned goods.

Friday June 31st is Family day, and children 12 and  under get in free.

Also, if you buy your tickets or ride wristbands in advance, you can get a discount here.
