Looking for something less crowded than a big amusement park? Look no further. Set in what was once a rocky field, the fairgrounds offer more than enough to entertain your sims.

The Dinocoaster offers a thrilling ride,
right past the jaws of an ancient beast,
over hills and plunges,
and through water spouts.
The carousel offers rides on a variety of beasts.
Sims can stroll through market area
to buy or sell produce, enjoy some popcorn, an icy snow cone, fresh popcorn, a cool drink, or a hot one and a pastry,
or, if they prefer, have a picnic or grill some hot dogs.
Talented riders, or solo horses, can impress the crowds on the jump course.
There is a big top tent
which offers a trapeze,
and plenty of space for talented sims to impress others with their music, their acrobatic prowess, or a few magician's tricks. No schedule needed to perform; just come on in and do your thing!
There are plenty of seats for those who want to relax and watch as well.
Just outside is a small midway,
and further along is a hot tub,
🐸🐸🐸🐸 wagon,
fire pit, and facilities.
There is a livestock section
and a bar pavilion for cool drinks or hot food.
Additional facilities are tucked in behind the Dinocoaster.
As you can see, it's a relaxing yet fun-filled place.
Here are overview shots of the park from each direction. At the corner, there is even a small tower for watching the stars.
The fairgrounds are perfect for less urban worlds, and can be easily adjusted to fit your needs.

Ah, for more rides.......little ones for the toddlers and children, like cars, boats, etc., and some others for adults. A ferris wheel, bumper cars, a ***** house ride (all of which someone did custom for TS2!!), maybe a Scrambler or Octopus! Even a big carnival swing would be cool!
I'd love to see more actual "circus" stuff as well; a real trapeze, some added tricks with props pets could use, group acrobat acts, and so forth! They keep teasing us, with the carnival stuff first, and now this new set. Heck, even some animatronic "performers" and performing animals would be cool!

I think my brain is stuck on theme parks lately. Will have to try some other sorts of lots soon.
Any ideas? Anything you'd like to see?

All we're missing now is a ferris wheel.

I really do love that dinosaur! Having him on the loop just seemed like fun. You can download some customs dinos here - http://www.blackypanther.de/include.php?path=content/overview.php&letter=&catid=124&themeid=0&type=4&order=&entries=24 - German site, but some really cool new meshes - look there for the dinos! Just set a user acct - free - and use the English translation in the drop-down menu on the right. There is a lot of neat stuff on that site.
Ah, a ferris wheel......*sigh*! I have seen one that is decorative, which is pretty cool, though. The set its in is here - http://sims3-modeli.ucoz.ru/forum/22-174-6#13733 - in Russian, but scroll a little and you'll see the pics and link. The only issue I had was that the tables don't work well with the chairs. The rest seems good, though.

Old thread, I know, but there is a ferris wheel now!!!!! You can get it over at ModtheSims - modthesims.info/d/571482 - and it works!!! It's not large, but sims can ride, and I have used in game. In fact, it's in the Gnomeworld park (link below) that I recently posted. Mediafire link for that one, cause the Exchange didn't like the custom stuff, but a fun little park! Anyway, enjoy the ferris wheel, and it would likely fit into this one!
