NY State Fair tickets go on sale Wednesday

Geddes, NY — Tickets and parking passes for the 2022 New York State Fair go on sale at 8 am Wednesday.

Tickets will cost $3 and parking is $5, the same as it was last year. Tickets can only be bought through the Fair’s exclusive online ticket seller, Etix.

Admission remains free of charge to people ages 65 years old and up, and children 12 and under.

“As part of our commitment to making sure that the Fair is as accessible as possible to all New Yorkers, our team felt strongly that keeping admission across the board at $3 was the right thing to do — especially as we continue to re-emerge from the pandemic,” interim Fair Director Sean Hennessey said in a press release.

Tickets will only be sold online in advance and during the Fair, which runs Aug. 24 through Sept. 5. You can buy tickets by clicking on this web address starting Wednesday.

You can also order tickets over the phone at (800) 514-3849. You can buy tickets in-person during the Fair at all gates through electronic kiosks, but there will be no cash sales at the entrance gates or in parking lots.

You can purchase parking for $5 in advance. When arriving at the fair, drivers may show their ticket to parking attendants electronically on their phones, or through a printed copy. In the Orange and Brown lots, parking may also be paid for using EZPass Plus, a free add-on to EZPass, which allows users to pay for parking in addition to highway tolls.
