Fair Food Drive-thru returns to fairgrounds this weekend

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — The savory, sweet, salty and sugary treats that the Kern County Fair is known for, will be available once again via a drive-thru this weekend.

A calendar listing on the Kern County Fair’s website shows the Fair Food Drive-thru is taking place at the Kern County Fairgrounds’ South P Street lot.

The website shows the event takes place Friday, Jan. 29 through Sunday, Jan. 31 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

It isn’t clear what foods or vendors will be available but the site does mention it’ll be your chance to get lobster fries and Old West cinnamon rolls.

Last fall, the fairgrounds hosted a drive-thru event in lieu of the traditional fair. In the first weekend, organizers said over 6,300 cars made their way to the fairgrounds making over $300,000 in sales.
