Sonoma County Event Center at the Fairgrounds

Country music festival 2025 was a blast!! Great venue, didn't have to walk miles to get into the venue. Tons of food vendors and bathrooms were kept clean, never had to wait in line either. It was a hot day but we found shade trees next to the stage and had a great time.

Attended the Peggy Sue Car show. $10 for parking and $10 per person for entry. Loved the food vendors, especially the Caribbean food truck, there pulled pork was out of this world. The car show was amazing this year with over 700 cars, the pin up contest was really fun too.

Lots of fun things to do at this fair. I found the most amazing thai die at one of the booths outside of the building. They have fireworks and lots of good things to eat and a whole bunch of rides.

A nice open event center - we attended the Sonoma county fair there recently and really enjoyed the Monster Truck show. Bathrooms were relatively easy to find and the wait generally wasn’t too long. I will definitely want to go back next year!

Hot air ballon show. Simple show. Definitely an experience. Started at 5am with food vendors.

Great venue, went to Country Summer and it was definitely a fun time! Bring foldable chairs, blankets, and shade, you won't regret it.

I always love the fair but this year I was very upset with the way they did the toddler/little kid area. Every ride I tried to take my toddler on either I couldn't ride too because I was too tall or I wasn't wearing the right shoes or they scanned our ticket then he wouldn't get on the ride so we lost tickets. We finally found one Both of us could ride together and he got turned away twice by a super rude ride operater because either we didn't have enough tickets or we both didn't have wristbands. It was a total racket and my poor toddler was just disappointed over and over again. We also really missed the horse races. Even when not betting, It was nice to have a place to go chill out , cool down and break up the long day. There were still fun things and the fair was pretty normal other than those 2 fairly big misses in my opinion.

So many fun memories as a child at the Fair. The rides, the food, the photo booths, and farm animals. All the amazing events over the years - Health & Harmony Festival, Music shows, Gem Shows, Dog shows, Flower Shows, Quilt shows, Horse racing and Rodeos! We are so lucky to have such a wonderful fairgrounds. Also, you can jump on the Airport Express from the Fair now in the Park N Ride across the street in big parking lot. Hoping for more fun to come at the Fair - here's to a BIG comeback! ❤️
