Video: Amusement Rides at the Dixon, CA May Fair
The 2011 Dixon May Fair offered more than 20 different carnival rides for fairgoers. Dixon Patch decided to ride them all and find the best.
By Jeremy Ogul May 8, 2011



No festival is complete without amusement rides, and the Dixon May Fair has dozens to choose from. Rides designed for younger children are located near the middle of the fairgrounds. The "big kid" rides are located on the southern end of the fairgrounds. Ride tickets are $1 each, with each ride costing 3 to 5 tickets. All-day passes are available for $29.

After scoping out the options, I settled on a few rides that looked scary and exhilarating. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to ride the Zipper or the Ferris wheel, since there was a "no single riders rule" -- I'll know not to come by myself next time. I did, however, bring my camera and made a video of the experience!

Warning: This video might make you dizzy!
