The Southwestern Fair Commission, Inc., is a non-profit, private corporation, established in 1975 by Pima County to operate the fairgrounds and the Pima County Fair since the 1970’s. Under the management agreement set forth by the Commission and Pima County, any profits earned from operations is put back into the facility for improvements.

The Pima County Fairgrounds comprise a 640-acre event complex that resides in a desert environment with mesquite, cacti and grass with an average temperature of 80° F.

The facilities at the Pima County Fairgrounds include motorized event facilities that are subleased to Tucson Raceway Park, home of annual NASCAR events and Southwestern International Dragway, home of annual NHRA events.

In the interest of increasing revenue at the Pima County Fairgrounds, the Southwestern Fair commission, Inc., has begun producing several events at the facility to include horse shows and concerts. These events have allowed us to be in a position to maximize the usage of the facility for year round purposes.
The Southwestern Fair Commission, Inc. looks forward to improving the facilities at the Pima County Fairgrounds, to cooperating with other for profit and non-profit organizations to produce more events and better serve our community.
