Gates open June 12: Here's all the details on tickets, dates, how to get there, new attractions, what not to miss and a sneak peek at this year's new fair food items
The official first day of summer this year is June 20, but for many San Diegans, the real summer kickoff will be June 12, when the 2024 San Diego County Fair opens for a 20-day run at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. This year's fair is getting off to a slightly later start than usual, in part because many local school districts had classes through this week. But the good news is that this year's fair run won't close as usual on July 4. Instead it will run through Sunday, July 7.
It will feature American Saddlebreds, Hackney and Roadster ponies, Morgans, Friesians and Andalusians, as well as contests in carriage and equitation. Also: The fair will also have the Great American Petting Farm, goat-milking demonstrations, alpacas and Sky River Butterfly Farms. This year's speakeasy, on the rooftop of the grandstand building, is titled Destination Unknown. Open from noon to close for ages 21 and older, the bar will offer disco music and spinning disco balls.
