LA County Fair Kicks Of Thursday, Celebrating 100 Years

LOS ANGELES COUNTY -- The Los Angeles County Fair returns to the fairgrounds in Pomona on Thursday, May 5 and lasts through Monday, May 30, which is Memorial Day.

This year's theme is "Back to Our Roots," in recognition of the fair's first being established 100 years ago, in 1922.

But despite the theme, the fair is trying something very new this year. For the first time, parking and admission will be a cashless process. Fairgoers can buy admission and parking before they arrive. In order to avoid the lines, you can arrive with your parking and admission already queued up on your phone.

Upon arrival, drive in through Gate 9 on White Avenue or Gate 17 on Fairplex Drive for quick and easy access. After that, you can self-scan your way in with your phone or printed ticket at the Yellow, Blue or Red Gate entrances and enjoy the Fair.

Tickets are available for purchase online at https://www.etix.com/ticket/v/...

In addition to the usual fun and food, acts scheduled to perform at the fair this year include KC & the Sunshine Band, Juanes, ZZ Top, Lady A (formerly Lady Antebellum), the Village People and the Ohio Players.
