Welcome to the Klamath County Event Center

Construction begins on fairgrounds/Event center RV park remodel, expansion

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. – On Thursday, June 15, members of the Klamath County Fair Board, Fair Manager Derrick “DJ” Rowley, and Klamath County Commissioners, Dave Henslee and Derrick DeGroot ceremoniously broke ground on an RV park project at the Klamath County Fairgrounds/Event Center (KCF). 

“We have been working toward this project for several years,” said Rowley. “The facility has needed repairs and upgrades for today’s modern rigs, and to meet the high demand of travelers. With the amount of work needed on the old facility, it was more cost effective to start new.” 

The new facility will double from its previous size of 24 shared sites to 48 full hookup campsites. 

The RV community can expect standard amenities inside the campground, including: campsites with both back in and pull through options, accommodations for RVs up to 65 feet in length, a fully landscaped facility, and paved driveways. Each site will offer concrete pads, picnic tables, freshwater connections, 30/50-amp electrical service, and sewer drains.  

In addition, the facility will be secured with a privacy fence around the perimeter and include its own coded entry gate for easy access off Crest Street. Separating RV traffic from fairgrounds traffic, reducing congestion at the main gate.  

Programmers are developing an online booking system to make stays automated. Allowing travelers to easily book their stay and check-in 24-hours a day, without the need to visit the main office during regular business hours. Greatly improving the overall experience.  

“We are still crunching the numbers on what fees will be for overnight stays as well as a max length of stay,” said Rowley. “However, lodging priority will remain with our events.” 

In addition to the spacious sites, a new ADA accessible bathhouse with restrooms and showers will be constructed on the north side of the RV park. 

This project is the latest in a series of updates for the fairgrounds. In 2021, the fairgrounds/event center crew added more green space as well as utility upgrades to the food court west of the Stillwell Arena. As well as improvements to the meeting rooms in Linman Hall. Soon, additional improvement projects will include new food court bathrooms as well as South 6th St. frontage re-design, and a new maintenance shop. 

The campground will be the largest capital project on the 55-acre property since the construction of the Event Center in 2000.  

Construction of the RV park is expected to be completed in the spring of 2024.
