About Fairplex At Pomona

Fairplex At Pomona is a multi-purpose event complex and fairgrounds located at 1101 West McKinley Ave in Pomona, California. The site dates back to 1922, when the first Los Angeles County Fair was held there, and it is operated by the Los Angeles County Fair Association, a nonprofit organization. Capacity varies widely by configuration because the 500-acre grounds include multiple event spaces, including exhibition halls, open grounds, a grandstand, a drag racing strip, equestrian facilities, and the on-site Sheraton Fairplex Hotel.

The venue is best known as the longtime home of the Los Angeles County Fair, one of the largest county fairs in the United States. It also hosts concerts across genres, trade shows, expos, consumer shows, equestrian events, festivals, community and private events, and NHRA drag racing at the on-site Auto Club Raceway at Pomona. The NHRA Winternationals and World Finals have helped make the raceway a major motorsports destination.

Fairplex At Pomona is also named as a venue for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, where it is set to host the return of cricket to the Olympic program.

Location & Transportation

Fairplex At Pomona is located at 1101 West McKinley Ave, Pomona, CA 91768 — near the junction of the 10 and 57 freeways in the Pomona area.

Driving and Parking: Fairplex At Pomona is highly car-accessible via the 10 and 57 freeways, with access also available from the 210 via Fairplex Dr. Large on-site parking lots serve the 500-acre grounds, with access through numbered gates including Gate 1 through Gate 17/19. Parking fills early during major events such as the Los Angeles County Fair and NHRA weekends, so arriving ahead of peak entry times is a smart move.

Transit: Metrolink regional rail serves the Pomona area, though Fairplex At Pomona is primarily a car-oriented venue. Transit can be useful for some visitors, but many guests plan around driving, rideshare, or hotel shuttles depending on the event.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are available at designated gates. After large events, waits can be longer because of the scale of the grounds and the volume of vehicles leaving at once.

Nearby Accommodation: The on-site Sheraton Fairplex Hotel offers the most convenient lodging for events at Fairplex At Pomona. Additional hotels are available throughout Pomona and nearby communities along the 10 freeway corridor.

Venue Navigation

Fairplex At Pomona is a large fairgrounds-style event complex, so navigating it starts with understanding which gate, parking area, and event space apply to your visit. Because events can take place in exhibition halls, open-air areas, the grandstand, or the raceway, planning your route in advance can save significant walking time.

Entrances and Access: Access is handled through multiple numbered vehicle and pedestrian gates distributed around the perimeter of the grounds, including Gate 1, 2, 3, 4, 17, 19, and others. The appropriate gate depends on the event and parking area shown for your event.

Seating Levels: Seating and circulation vary by event space. Motorsports events use grandstand seating at the raceway, concerts may use reserved or general-admission configurations, and fair events often use open-grounds layouts with flexible seating and standing areas.

Accessibility: Accessible parking and ADA accommodations are available across the grounds. Services can vary by individual venue and event, so guests should review the event information and venue guidance before arrival.

Getting to Your Section: Expect significant walking between parking lots, gates, and event spaces. Directional signage and event staff help guide guests, but comfortable footwear is important because of the large footprint.

Dining Options

Inside Fairplex At Pomona

Fairplex At Pomona offers extensive food and concession options, especially during the Los Angeles County Fair, which is known for a wide variety of fair food and vendors. Alcohol is typically available at events. During busy fair days, concerts, and race weekends, food lines can build around peak arrival times and major schedule breaks.

Outside the Venue — Pomona

Dining is available throughout Pomona and nearby La Verne and San Dimas, with additional options along the 10 freeway corridor. Staying nearby or eating before arrival can be helpful for high-attendance events when parking and entry lines are busiest.

Bag Policy: Bag checks are standard at entry. Bag size restrictions and clear-bag requirements may apply depending on the event, so packing light helps speed up the screening process.

Commonly Prohibited Items: Weapons, outside alcohol, and other restricted items are typically prohibited. Additional restrictions can vary by event and promoter.

Re-Entry: Re-entry policies vary by event and are shown with event-specific information. Review the event listing before leaving the grounds during your visit.

How Much Do Tickets to Fairplex At Pomona Cost?

Fairplex At Pomona ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist or racing lineup, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from Los Angeles County Fair admission to NHRA premium weekend packages.

LA County Fair admission is typically on the lower end, often around $15–$30 or more for general admission. Prices can vary by date, attendance demand, and whether the ticket is connected to a special event or concert.

Concert tickets are typically moderate and vary by artist, seating setup, and whether admission is bundled with fair entry. Reserved seats, closer stage views, and high-demand performers can push prices higher than general-admission options.

NHRA drag racing tickets are typically moderate to high for grandstand seating, reserved seats, and premium weekend packages. Major racing weekends, marquee lineups, and premium access can increase demand for the best available seats.

Buying earlier generally secures better seating and pricing for high-demand events. As inventory shrinks and the event date approaches, prices for the best remaining sections often rise, especially for popular fair dates, major concerts, and NHRA weekends.

Fairplex At Pomona Seating Guide

Fairplex At Pomona seating depends on the specific event space and event format. Grandstand seating is used for motorsports, concerts can feature reserved or general-admission setups, and fair events often use open-grounds areas with flexible viewing options.

Best Seats at Fairplex At Pomona

  • Best value: General-admission and lawn or open-ground areas are typically the most affordable options, especially for fair events and select concerts.
  • Closest to the action: Front grandstand rows and trackside or stage-front areas put you nearest to the racing, stage, or main performance area.
  • Best overall experience: Reserved grandstand seating closest to the track or stage offers strong sightlines while keeping you connected to the energy of the event.
  • Premium and suite options: Premium and group packages are offered for marquee events such as NHRA weekends and the Los Angeles County Fair.
  • For groups: Coordinating seats or admission early is helpful for high-demand events, especially when you want everyone in the same reserved section or arriving through the same event area.

Getting Ready for Your Fairplex At Pomona Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a large outdoor event complex with multiple gates, parking areas, and event spaces.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. Mobile service can be congested during large events like the fair. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
  • Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
  • Arrive early. Parking and gate lines build for major events, and traffic near the 10 and 57 freeway junction can be congested.
  • Wear the right footwear. Fairplex At Pomona covers a large outdoor site with substantial walking between parking, gates, and event areas, so comfortable shoes are strongly recommended.
  • Dress in layers. Inland Southern California heat is common during fair season, and evenings can be cooler. Plan for sun protection during the day and layers later.
  • Build extra time into your transit plan. Give yourself a larger arrival buffer for fair dates, NHRA weekends, and major concerts because parking lots and entry points can get busy.
  • Know your entrance. Your event information will indicate the assigned gate and parking area, which helps you head directly to the right side of the grounds.
  • Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
