The schedule will be released in early June.

Where: Del Mar Fairgrounds, 2260 Jimmy Durante Blvd., Del Mar When: June 11-July 4 (Closed Mondays and Tuesdays) Expect a Ferris wheel, carousel, food, agricultural-themed exhibits and more. The San Diego County Fair is scaling back for 2021 with a smaller event that has the spirit of the fair. Be advised that tickets for many events are required to be purchased in advance.Īnd even though events are being scheduled well into the fall, we’re capping our list as events through the end of September for now. Your best bet? Checking with the events’ websites and social media pages for the latest updates and pricing. And you will need to stay on top of COVID-19 precautions, which are also a moving target. Be sure to check refund and cancellation policies before plunking down your cryptocurrency.

There’s one big caveat here: If we learned anything in the last year, it’s that plans can change fast. While many of the events happening will be modified, and in many cases with smaller audiences than before the pandemic, there are still ways to get out and celebrate. There are things to go and do this summer all over Southern California, from family favorites like the OC Fair and Pageant of the Masters to music festivals such as Hard Summer and BeachLife. After more than a year of large-scale fairs, festivals and events being a no-go because of the coronavirus pandemic, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, and it’s actually the sun, in case you’ve forgotten what it looks like.
