Question: |
How can my family save money on tickets for the fair? |
Answer: |
There are several ways a family can save. One way is to click on the "Fair Schedule" to view the various "SPECIALS" that are offered at the fair. If those promotions do not work for your schedule, you will definately get the most "bang for your buck" by purchasing your Advance Tickets or Express Pass, (1 gate admission and 1 ride band which is good for any one day of the fair) from this web site or at Walgreens Drug Stores beginning October 1st, through November 1st only. Remember, * Ride bands purchased at the fair do not include admission unless it is a special day when we offer a pay one price promotion that is good for a specific period of time. |
| Question | Children 5 years of age and under are admitted free but my question is, should I purchase ride bands or individual ride tickets for them? |
| Answer | It depends on how adventurious your child is and the height required for their safety to ride each ride. Before purchasing your tickets you may want to visit our carnival web page at http://www.bellecityamusements.com/rides. Click on each ride to see if your litttle one is tall enought to ride the rides you have selected. Once you get to the fairgrounds, heigth requirements are posted at each ride. Remember, little ones can get tired in a hurry, so if they only want to ride one or two rides and visit our free ground acts like the Racing Pigs, No Jo The Clown Circus, Jump the Dog Show or Kachunga the Alligator Show, your better value might be to purchase individual tickets once you arrive at the fair for the rides you think your child can ride. Individual ride tickets can be purchased once you enter the grounds from the ride ticket booths for $1.00 per ticket. Rides can take from 3 and 5 tickets each. |
Question: |
Can I purchase entry tickets and ride bands at the fair with a credit card? |
Answer: |
Yes, but the only place this service is available is when you charge your admission and ride wristbands at the entrance gate. It is not available if not charged at that time. Once you enter the gate ride bands may be purchased with cash at one of the inside tickets booths. For your convenience, ATM machines are available throughout the fairgrounds. |
