Summer Fair Fun!
This July, there will be a more streamlined Stanislaus County Fair. As they are unable to have the full midway, the fair will highlight some of our favorite things, edible and fun things. Stanislaus County Fair has always been the summer place for family and community-oriented experience promoting agriculture, entertainment, and technology.
This summer you can get the best of the best fair food at the Fair Food Bites event! As part of the Summer of Fun Arena Series Presented by Coors Light, Fair Food Bites will have FREE admission and be open to the public each of the three weekends in July: July 9-11, July 16-18, and July 23-25.
Craving sweets? You can stop by the Funnel Cake Express for their famous cheesecake funnel cake and their fried Oreos and Twinkies. You can grab an appetizing almond toffee pretzel or yummy pizza pretzel at PHD & Me Pretzels. Don’t forget to visit Country Fair Cinnamon Rolls for their Bacon Bomb, a delectable cinnamon roll topped with bacon and maple syrup.
Craving savory? Head directly to get a tasty Cajun corn dog or a Polish sausage sandwich at Space Age Corn Dog & Curly Fries. Want to fill up but don’t want to slow down? Get VFW’s Auxiliary’s legendary Double Cheeseburger and Warrior Fries to-go. Make sure to try Jeanne’s Artichokes, renowned for their scrumptious fried artichokes, veggies, and french fries.
The Fair Food Bites stations will be open from 10am to 10pm on Fridays & Saturdays, and 10am to 7pm on Sundays. Free parking is available for all patrons in the North Parking Lot off of Soderquist Rd. or North Broadway.
But wait, there’s more!
The FoodMaxx Arena will be the place to be for destruction derbies, monster trucks, drag racing, tractor pulls, a car-crushing dinosaur, and much more!
