Facilities at the fairgrounds include the JH Buck Expo centre, a community room, special events building, Agriplex building, 2 show pens and 2 race tracks.

The small 1/8 oval track is known as Paris International Speedway and hosts flat track speedway motorcycles and ATV racing on Friday nights. Racing is European speedway style, 4 at a time from a standing start with no brakes. May also host karts and midget racers from time to time. www.parisspeedway.ca/

The large 1/2 mile oval may host horse/harness racing during the fair but is mostly inactive for racing. It is used for parades and the yearly demolition derby in front of the grandstand. It has been used to race stock cars but not since 1985.

Within the 1/2 mile track the remnants of a 1/4 mile track can be seen. This track was used for stock car racing from 1985 until around 1991.
