Western Fair District is a place to be entertained.   The historic 85 acre, year-round, site is a London landmark.  Located in the heart of the city the District provides a wide array of entertainment and recreation options to a broad spectrum of customers, within London and across southwestern Ontario.

Western Fair District is a not-for-profit agricultural Association that has deep roots in the City, evolving over a century-and-a-half from an agricultural fall Fair to a multi-faceted event centre which includes music and shopping, gaming and sports.  The District is committed to providing entertaining experiences that enrich your life and the community and as part of our “not-for-profit” status we reinvest our revenue surpluses into upgrading our facilities and products to meet the needs of our community.

Western Fair District houses several complexes that offer popular consumer and trade shows and exhibits, a first class harness horse racetrack and state of the art slot operation, great dining, meeting and banquet facilities, as well as an industry leading sports complex which is home to a variety of ice events.

One of the leading employers in the region, the Western Fair District has a huge impact on the local economy and is a major contributor to London and surrounding communities.
