OC Fair & Event Center

88 Fair Dr.
Costa Mesa, California

Nestled in scenic Orange County, about an hour south of Los Angeles, Costa Mesa is home to the sprawling 150-acre OC Fair and Event Center. Hosting over 150 events and over 4 million visitors annually, this venue also holds the honor of being the home of the first County Fair of Santa Ana in 1890. Withstanding the test of time, the OC Fair and Event Center is widely known for hosting the annual summer 23-day OC Fair. However, not to be classified as simply a fairground, over the years, it has also hosted notable people such as former President Barack Obama on his visit to Southern California as well as many local community events and activities. If you’re looking for a place that compliments summer event ideas for employees, the OC Fair and Event Center is it.

Plenty of Rentable Spaces

For example, the 15,000-square-foot covered outdoor exhibit hall known as the ‘Santa Ana Pavilion’ can accommodate up to 52 booths as large as 10’x10’ and 1,076 booths for trade shows and banquets, with banquet tables and chairs available for use. Furthermore, the massive Santa Ana Pavilion can also accommodate 2,243 individuals for hosting your next company assembly.

Do you still need more space? Don’t worry! The outdoor covered exhibit hall, the OC Promenade, is an impressive 18,660 square feet and can accommodate 82 booth spaces or 1,100 booths for your next trade show. Are you having an assembly? The OC Promenade can entertain a massive 2,500 individuals. Want to enjoy some open, uncovered outdoor spaces for your next customer appreciation or promotional events? The OC Fair and Event Center also houses an additional 6 uncovered outdoor spaces spread over a sprawling 130 acres!

Picture It

Overall, teeming with climate-controlled exhibit halls and covered and uncovered outdoor spaces, the OC Fair and Event Center is the ultimate venue for hosting everything from an annual company picnic, team building, excursions, and events leading all the way to hosting a scenic venue for conferences.

In fact, our Orange County picnic company has named it one of the best locations for picnics for large companies. With ability to bring in carnival rides, company picnic games and activities for the whole family this location is excellent for a private fair or carnival. Dates are limited due to the very full schedule so be sure to discuss booking with our agency as soon as you decide on a date.
