It\u2019s July, and while Independence Day is almost in the rearview mirror, the month still promises more blasts, courtesy of a 10-day blowout in Turlock.<\/p>\n

The Stanislaus County Fair \u2014 which usually draws more than 200,000 people annually \u2014 has a slate of events set for July 10-19 at the fairgrounds.<\/p>\n

Expect plenty of live entertainment, arena events, carnival rides, food, livestock, a variety of exhibits and more.<\/p>\n

The high-profile music this summer features R&B, country, rock and Latin artists. Among the bigger names are Ashanti, Clint Black, Diamond Rio, Ying Yang Twins and 3OH!3.<\/p>\n

And you can expect the usual popular motorsports and rodeo to fill the arena, along with bloodless bullfights.<\/p>\n

Social media reaction to the concert lineup offers a positive sign for this year\u2019s attendance, according to Maci Smith, fair marketing coordinator.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe community has been so excited (about the concert lineup),\u201d she said in an email interview, \u201cand we\u2019ve seen the comment many times on our concert social media posts: \u201cWow, the Stan Co Fair really wants us going every day this year, huh?\u201d<\/p>\n

But let\u2019s be real \u2014 a lot of fairgoers show up with their eyes and stomachs focused on the food court. More than 40 concessionaires will be there, according to the fair\u2019s media guide.<\/p>\n

Among this year\u2019s new options are: Gooder Burger, smash burgers and fries; Sweet Crunch Tanghulu, a dessert with fresh fruit on bamboo skewers coated in a rock candy shell; The Cinnamon Roll Shop, specialty cinnamon rolls, such as a caramel apple roll and maple bacon bomb; and Boscos Coffee, a variety of hot and cold coffee drinks.<\/p>\n

The expo also offers new ways to save patrons money, she said.<\/p>\n

A fair \u201cstarter pack\u201d is being sold in advance, through July 9. It includes two adult fair admissions, two corn dogs and two sodas for $39. A Stanley Express Season Pass provides 10 admissions for multiple people to use on one day or across multiple days.<\/p>\n

A graphic on the fair\u2019s website<\/a> lists the above and other discounts and promotions, including $5 Fair Bites, weekdays from 4 to 6 p.m. with bite-size versions of best-selling food vendor items.<\/p>\n

As always, the midway will feature an array of thrills, from kiddie rides to high-in-the-sky fliers to those that will turn you upside-down.<\/p>\n

Some other fresh 2026 fair features are art-related. Stanley\u2019s Art Studio will have daily hours when children can color and contribute to a community handprint mural. Makers Workshops for ages 3-13 include activities such as ponybead keychain creation and slime making.<\/p>\n

An Art Day planned for Saturday, July 11, noon to 8 p.m., will offer activities across the grounds.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe highlight of Art Day will be our first ever Performing Arts Showcase,\u201d Smith said. It will be on the Michelob Ultra Center Stage starting at 5:30 p.m. About 24 preregistered performers, ages 5 and older, will compete in dance, vocal, instrumental, theater and live art categories. Each division winner will receive $100, with the grand champion gaining an additional $400.<\/p>\n

The above highlights are just glimpse. Fair officials hope for good weather and positive reactions to this year\u2019s offerings.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been working so hard to make the Stan Co Fair bigger and better than ever, and we are excited to bring the community together for 10 days of memories and fun,\u201d Smith said.<\/p>\n
