The
487 acre Fairplex complex 10 minutes from West Covina is home
to the Los Angeles County Fair and over 300 events annually.
The world famous event is the most attended County Fair in
the US, boasting an annual attendance of over 1 million. Many
consumer and trade shows, meetings, expositions and conventions
make their home at Fairplex.
Also on the Fairplex grounds, the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports
Museum, long a dream of NHRA founder Wally Parks, opened to
the public April 4, 1998, after years of planning and months
of hard work cataloging and arranging the exhibit. Housed
in a 28,500-square-foot building on the edge of the historic
Los Angeles County Fairplex, the NHRA Motorsports Museum echoes
NHRA's mission statement to preserve, protect, and perpetuate
the sport of drag racing. The museum features an impressive
array of vintage and historical racing vehicles –- nearly
50 at the Grand Opening -- along with photographs, trophies,
helmets and driving uniforms, artifacts, paintings, and other
memorabilia chronicling more than 50 years of American motorsports.
A gift shop offers a wide variety of souvenir items.
