So much fun. I absolutely loved it and can't wait for next year. You simply cannot overdressed here at the Faire, so bring out your best costumes, the more the better. The Faire is well organized, informative. I loved everything, even the very little details, the very small shows and talks on the side walk, not just on the bigger stages. Well done.

Something Morbid

May 2, 2022

A nice way to spend Easter sunday. I had a lot of fun I do wish there was more shade though. Security was courtious and professional. Staff entertaining, informative and pleasant. It was a fun laid back , you did not need a costume to enjoy it, no one treated people differenly for not having one. Though those who did and were inclined to play along always had someone willing to join in on it. My buddy found another plague doc looking for a local Apothecary , and I had someone offer me double whatever I was being paid. Wise choise as either way I would be seeing him later. Just kidding of course <.< >.> Their website is a bit confusing. In the end it was mostly my fault I did not pay attention and bought vip parking for the next avaible sunday(easter sunday was full up when I went to pay). On top of skiping the insurace you can buy least you have to cancle you can get most of your money back.

Amazing and fun! They have plenty of shows, awesome artisans, and a place to let your freak flag fly...that is family friendly of course! I would say give it a go and have some fun! If you are going to go to the Gyro food hut they Take cash only. I would strongly suggest trying the Athenian pita! There's all sorts of musical acts. I would suggest to check out seraphim arabesque. They perform 3 times a day. That also have different games such as archery, throwing a toy cat and winning a prize, and more They also have plenty of Arts and crafts opertunity for children such as viking weaving Give this place ago just to be cultured!

The Santa Fe Dam opens at 9 a.m. for parking. The Box Office also opens at 9 a.m. for ticket purchasing needs. The Faire is open 10 a.m. - 7 p.m. Jason, get your hands stamped on the way out for same-day re-entry. Children age 4 and younger are always free. Shelley, the Uber and Lyft pick-up and drop-off point is just outside the Faire gates. Drivers do not need to pay the Santa Fe Dam vehicle access fee.

Buying at fair will usually run you more then just buying a costume. I reccomend looking around thrift near Halloween time and Halloween stores the week after Oct, for the most savings.

So, you pay 10 dollars to park, 30 dollars to get in, 18 dollars for lunch, and if you want to buy anything.....well lets just say, bring about 500.00 dollars....it's gotten pretty sleazy. I've been going for 40 years and now I'm not going anymore.

Annette V | Aug 26, 2019

the metro from San Diego to dwntwn LA, then the metro line 2 Irwindale station & uber takes you into the Santa Fe Damn Ren site. It's best way with no car.....then you can try to find friends who want to go with you, all can pay towards gas with someone that doesn't mind driving all of you.

Kimberly Hammond | Aug 26, 2019

There is a ride-share drop off point located near the front gate of the Faire. The LA Parks District has assured us that if the driver shows the ride-share app in progress they will waive the $10 access fee. If you are walking to the Faire (say from the bus stop located outside the Santa Fe Dam) then you will not pay a fee to enter. The $10 fee is a vehicle access fee only.
