New This YearBuy Parking & Admission Online

To better serve Fair guests, the San Diego County Fair is moving to a cashless payment experience for Admission & Parking. Cashless payments are safer and faster, too–avoid wait times at the gate and spend more time enjoying the Fair! There’s no transaction fees for admission or parking.

Need help? Our onsite team is here for you.
If you don’t have a computer or smart phone, or would just rather purchase in person, our gate attendants are here to help. Only have cash? Use our cash-to-credit reverse ATMs to exchange your cash for a Mastercard, valid anywhere credit cards are accepted.

To better the overall guest experience by limiting attendance and crowding, we adopted reserved-date ticketing for the 2022 San Diego County Fair, and will not be offering a season pass this year. However, if you purchased a “Best Pass Ever” season pass to the 2020 San Diego County Fair and did not use it at the Home Grown Fun event last summer, it will be honored for entrance throughout the 2022 San Diego County Fair. You may show your pass at any entrance; no need to reserve a ticket online in advance. Please note: parking is limited and parking passes must be purchased online in advance.

If you have an unused ticket to the 2020 San Diego County Fair (which was canceled due to COVID-19) and did not use it at the Home Grown Fun event last summer, it will be honored for entrance any day of the 2022 San Diego County Fair. You may show your ticket at any entrance; no need to reserve a ticket online in advance. Please note: parking is limited and parking passes must be purchased online in advance.

Shows on the Corona Grandstand Stage require a paid concert ticket available through Ticketmaster; your concert ticket will include same-day Fair admission.
