SEE EVENT DETAILS
The 2013 Marin County Fair themed Schools Rule! will celebrate the creativity and imagination of Marin’s talented students and focus on the outstanding schools that continue to strive for educational excellence setting the standard for school districts across the country. In partnership with the Marin County Office of Education the Marin County Fair attracts more than 120,000 attendees over its five day run. 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 international 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. Defying nature with miracles of balance, grace and agility, the CHINESE CIRCUS OF BEIJING flawlessly present an unforgettable performance infused with gripping circus skills, pulsating music, and electrifying costumes. This elite group of acrobats will delight audiences of all ages when they perform daily in the 800-seat Marin Veteran’s Memorial Auditorium, 1 pm, 3 pm and 5 pm.
