Event Description:
The OC Fair New Year’s Eve Block Party will not be returning this year. After three years of having this event, we found that while Block Party was a fun event for us to plan, and an entertaining event for our guests to attend, it did not meet the measure of success needed in order to continue. We look forward to seeing you at the annual OC Fair and any of the other events that take place at the OC Fair & Event Center. Please visit our calendar of events for more information on our year-round events program
