Orange County Fair, Costa Mesa, California, USA

August 13, 2025

The Orange County Fair has been going since 1890. It is now one of the biggest fairs in the world with an attendance of over 1 million visitors during the 23 days it is open each year. There are the traditional farm animals and vegetable competitions.

But the main attractions are the terrifying and nausea producing rides.

Of course, no fair is complete without a giant Ferris wheel.

The other main attraction is the massive variety of junk food. Hint: Save the food until after the rides.
