As a Dallas native, a longtime fairgoer, a former Dallas Historical Society volunteer, a local historian and an occasional tour guide, I have become well-acquainted with Fair Park over the years. Because I like to share what I know with others, I have created these tours, which I sincerely hope you will enjoy. They are designed to give you an opportunity to learn about the park without leaving the comfort of your home or office - although nothing can match a visit in person. Because Fair Park is such a big place (277 acres), I have created four separate tours. Three showcase the park as it is today and the fourth highlights park features that are no longer extant.
