The Lane County Fair is an annual fair held in Eugene, Oregon mid-summer featuring food, music, and other entertainment. It is held at the Lane County Fairgrounds.
Reviews are mixed, even a single review:
- Deep fried sugar, rigged carnival games, braying livestock, washed-up rock bands and bone-rattling carnival rides of dubious integrity: The Lane County Fair is simultaneously the best of times and the worst of times.[1]
In 1973, the fair was considered best in state for Oregon county fairs of more than 100,000 people in attendance.[2]
With 2020's cancellation as the COVID-19 pandemic was to blame, the event was deferred to 2021.
The Eugene Saturday Market's Holiday Market is held annually at the Lane County Fairgrounds.
