The LA County Fair puts the spotlight on all things creative in 2025 with its theme Art Unleashed.

The Fair has been a celebration of art for more than a century: home arts, culinary arts, visual arts, performing arts, fine arts. The art of having fun. The art of making memories. Celebrate artistry and mastery in all their diverse forms with the Fair’s immersive experience that promises to captivate all guests.

Prepare to be inspired, to laugh, to ride, to eat, to sing and dance 

What is Art?

Art is an expansive realm of boundless creativity and diversity, a universe where imagination knows no bounds. It’s not just canvas and brush. It’s a piping hot plate of ramen and the thumping bassline of a funk classic; the intricate engineering of the mechanics of a Ferris wheel; the last dollop of whipped cream atop a pillowy funnel cake. It spans the spectrum from spoken word to the fluid movement of dance.
