Sensory Sensitivity Services

in partnership with Kulture City

Patrons with autism and other sensory-sensitive conditions may find the sights and sounds of the Fair challenging and overwhelming. To help make their visit more enjoyable, the San Diego County Fair has partnered with KultureCity, whose Sensory Inclusion program has been successfully implemented in various public venues across the United States. Our Sensory Station, as well as noise-canceling headphones and other tools, are offered for use courtesy of our partnership with KultureCity. Visit Guest Services in the East Grandstand for more information.

Hot Diggity Dog (and cat and fish and bird)!

Whether you've got a furry friend, a scaly sidekick or a feathered flock, we all agree that pets rock! They bring joy, laughter, and a whole lot of love into our lives. They're our snuggle buddies, our adventure partners, and our loyal companions. This summer we'll celebrate the special bonds between humans and their pets.

Join us as we turn the dog days of summer into the cat's meow with thrilling rides, challenging games, mouth-watering food, incredible exhibits, and top-notch entertainment during our Summer Pet-tacular at the 2025 San Diego County Fair!
