San Diego Fair is on its way and is bringing another summer of great entertainment. The concert schedule offers a line-up of classics in a fair themed, "Race to the Fair". The fair this year is offering a $22 pass for 22 days admission! Compare that to the Los Angeles County Fair held later in the year where one day admission runs around that much, and it becomes clear that San Diego County Fair is best deal. Daily admission is around $13, and you can park for free.

There are add-on prices for concerts, ranging from around $25 - 150 for the dinner meal and VIP seating for some of these featured acts:
