2012 Marin County Fair: ALWAYS FRESH, FUN, & LOCAL Celebrating Marin's Agricultural Legacy
Each year, the one-price-gate Marin County Fair offers great headline entertainment each day, many new competitive exhibits, award-winning arts and crafts, short film and video festival, lush and bountiful gardens, a barnyard with some new and exciting animals, 28 FREE carnival rides, and the spectacular nightly fireworks over the Civic Center lagoon. Also, back by popular demand, the “stunning”, “breath-taking” and quite “unbelievable” performers of the Shangri-La Chinese Acrobats, a treat for audiences of all ages will entertain daily in the 800-seat Marin Veteran’s Memorial Auditorium.
For 2012, fairgoers will enjoy a spectacular theme focusing on Marin’s agricultural legacy and innovation that will showcase local products. The many exhibits and activities at the Fair will offer fairgoers plenty to see and do as they experience and gain a greater understanding of the past, present and future of farms and ranches in Marin County.
