One Day Only: Unlimited Rides at the New York State Fair for Less

With the New York State Fair just around the corner, Wade Shows is kicking things off with a one-day-only flash sale you won’t want to miss.

You can score the lowest price of the season on single-day Midway tickets on Monday, July 28 only.

“Ride All Day” wristbands will be just $24 plus fees during the flash sale—that’s nearly half price. These wristbands let you ride any ride, as many times as you want, on any one day during The Fair’s 13-day run.

“We’re excited to help fairgoers save on summer fun,” said Fair Director Julie LaFave. “With more rides, more thrills, and more ways to make memories, this year’s Midway is going to be amazing.”

Mega Pass

Want unlimited rides every day? The Mega Pass is for you—but it’s only available in advance. Grab it between July 29 and August 19, and pick it up at the Wade Shows trailer by Gate 4 starting August 16.
