• Or, you can go into Eugene first (follow city center signs) and make your way to 11th or 13th and head west. (11th funnels you onto 13th eventually)
• Continue west on 13th for 20 minutes or so, it turns into Hwy 126. Then you enter the town of Venita.
• At the shopping mall you can either stay going straight on Hwy 126 and the public fair entrance (Maple Gate) is about 2 miles ahead on the right. (only open fri, sat and sun)

If you are arriving TUESDAY:
Go right on N. Territorial Rd. just before the shopping mall (where the giant flag is, Ray’s foods, Dairy Queen, etc.)
– Go 1/2 mile till you see Hilltop Grocery and go left onto Suttle Rd.
– You can then go left into the fair on either Aero or Bus Rd. depending on what they tell you to do.

FAIR MAP

• Park wherever the nice parking folks tell you to park. If it is Wed or Thurs, stop buy registration first to get your pass and go back to your car to move it and park. (Don’t forget your vaccine proof and  ID at registration!)

• If you are arriving Wednesday or Thursday you can go right in the Bus Entrance, which takes you directly to the bottom of the “8”, bypassing the Left Bank.

• If it is Fri, Sat or Sun take your ticket or day pass and head to the entrance. It won’t be hard to find, just follow the thousands.
• The main entrance is between some wonderful dragon booths and takes you right to the “Left Bank” This part of the fair is a bit meandering so watch carefully for the first left turn at the Oregon Country Fair History booth, where you can buy posters and t-shirts.
• This short path is a bit wooded, you will pass a tiny meadow where musicians usually play and it will lead you to a fenced off bridge. (You don’t even notice that you crossed the water).
• Then you end up on the bottom of the “Figure 8” (that is the main path of the fair) next to the “Youth Stage.”
• Continue straight ahead, soon you will pass by another entrance where the folks riding the busses come in.

• Continue to follow the path as it veers off to the right, past “Create a Potato” and the “Gypsy Caravan Stage”
• Keep on going, soon you will pass “Energy park” and hear the drums at the “Drum Tower.” The drums are at the “Junction” where you can cross over to the river path, don’t be tempted, stay to the left.
• Keep on going, “Community Village” will be on your right.
• Soon the path will open up into a large meadow, this is “Main Stage.”
• Keep heading straight and the path will lead you into an area with lots of food booths.
• You will reach a corner where there are lots of choices of places to go, but the best one is “Blazing Salads!” we are on the corner on the right next to “Get Fried Rice” and across the street from the “Pizza” place
• The intersection is called “Pooh Corner” The Sauna’s are just around the corner. So if you get lost just ask anyone where the “Main Stage” is, and when you get there, ask them where the “Sauna’s” are, they will point you in the right direction and you’ll find us!

• If you are coming in on Wed. or Thurs. it is a 20 minute walk from the parking lot.
• If you are coming on Fri, Sat or Sun it is usually at least a 1 hour journey from the parking lot to the booth, so enjoy the scenery on your trip.
