Review for Newcastle Harness Racing Club Review For Illinois State Fairgrounds Google User Jan 9 '18 at 18:46 Way to over crowded and everything from the parking to the food to even just getting in is over priced. They do have some decent concerts, good food with a great selection and you can't beat the people watching. But I would still avoid this place at all cost and if you do have to go for some reason go during hours when it's not peak time. It'll be cheaper or even free to get in and it will be much easier to get around. View full site to comment or like
