We’ve all been waiting anxiously for the return of the North Carolina State Fair,
and while we still have 72 more days to go, the wait to buy your tickets is over! Save money and
skip the ticketing line at all gates by purchasing your tickets in advance! FastTrack gate
admission, attraction tickets and several carnival options are on sale now until Oct. 14 at reduced
prices.
“Buying in advance can save you up to 45 percent off prices once you arrive at the fair,” said
Kent Yelverton, state fair manager. “It is the most economical way to visit – especially if you’re
bringing the whole family.”
Online advance-sale only ticket packages are a convenient way to save money and buy tickets,
especially if you already have a certain fair experience in mind. “We offer packages tailored for
every type of fairgoer,” Yelverton said. “If you love the carnival or plan to bring the whole
family, there are packages for that. Want to try out one of our attractions like the State Fair
SkyGazer, State Fair Flyer or N.C. Public House? We’ve got packages for those, too.”
