We went out for the berry festival on mothers day and it was packed. Which we kinda expected. Great food trucks of all kinds. The Firestone pizza was delicious. But much to my surprise there were very few berries. Maybe 3 stands had any sign of berries. But there were pirates and people in other costumes which I didn't really understand. Not sure if I would go back. I can find food trucks with less of a crowd most weekends.

Placer Valley Tourism has recently revamped The Grounds and it really has a new pop! I recently attended the Roseville 2018 Event here during the week of the unveiling and was extremely impressed. I grew up visiting the Fairgrounds in the summer but I never saw it as a place that could be utilized throughout the year for other events. The new colors, landscaping and other changes have brought new life for future generations of attendees to The Grounds. Great job David and Team for the transformation!!!

Decent fairground venue. Parking is a huge issue. I was a vender and it took me an hour to get to a parking spot. Serious traffic issues. Our booth was situated inside the racetrack which was fine. The grass was patchy and weedy with cockleburrs, not the best. The upper area of the fairgrounds has lots of lush grass. The great hall was very well equipped.

The Strawberry Festival was only the beginning. Waay back in the back, almost out of sight, was a mini Renn Fayre. They had the auto arena outfitted with a jousting area, a bunch of pavilions, and a few sales booths. We even got our fortune read at a gypsy encampment. Of course there were the requisite lemonade booths, every one touting a strawberry flavour amongst all the other choices. Keep going until you find the one that sells lemonade in the 3 foot tall cups...with neck strap. They offer free refills!

The fairgrounds are very clean. Not what I'm used too in the past! New paved parking, is amazing. The rock & gem show was an amazing event March 26th with beautiful items, from all over the world! Impressed with the customer service of the employees who worked that day & all around, upgrades to the property. I had an amazing time! Thank you.
