It is housed in a wooden WWII blimp hangar that was once a part of [[Naval Air Station Tillamook]]. In 1991, illusionist [[David Copperfield (illusionist)|David Copperfield]] filmed a train car disappearance illusion for a TV special in Hangar B.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Rice |first1=Phyllis |title=Hangar B History |url=https://www.tillamookcountypioneer.net/hangar-b-history-titan-of-tillamook/ |website=Tillamook County Pioneer}}</ref> Its sister hangar (Hangar A) was destroyed by a fire in 1992. The hangars were built with [[old-growth]] trees and one can see the huge seamless beams inside the buildings. The Tillamook Cheese Factory is the Tillamook County Creamery Association's original cheese production facility. The Tillamook Cheese Factory also serves as a Visitor Center and hosts over 1 million tourists each year. Visitors can learn about the cheese-making process, cheese-packaging process, and the ice cream-making process from a viewing gallery over the main production floor. Tours are self-guided and self-paced, and are augmented by video presentations and interactive kiosks.<ref name="52perfectdays.com">{{cite web | url = http://www.52perfectdays.com/articles/savoring-tillamooks-cheese-and-coastal-beauty | title = Savoring Tillamook's Cheese and Coastal Beauty | author = Catherine Crawford | work = 52perfectdays.com | date = 20 October 2020 }}</ref> Tours inside the actual cheese-processing area of the plant were discontinued in 1967 due to health and safety regulations.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tillamookcheese.com/FAQS/Visitors_Center.aspx|title=Error Page|author=Tillamook|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110118094003/http://www.tillamookcheese.com/FAQS/Visitors_Center.aspx|archive-date=2011-01-18}}</ref> The [[Tillamook County Fair]] is world-famous for the annual [[Tillamook County Fair|Pig-N-Ford]] race where contestants have to catch a pig and race stripped [[Ford Model T|Model T Fords]] around an oval track with the pig under one arm.
