“The Carolina Classic Fair’s biggest and best savings are now available and include significant discounts on both admission tickets and ride wristband vouchers,” Carolina Classic Fair Director Cheryle Hartley said. “Act soon to make sure your family and friends will save money, avoid lines onsite, and have a Ridin’ Rockin’ Livestockin’ good time at this fall’s Carolina Classic Fair—we’re only weeks away from opening night!

“Be sure to purchase authentic Carolina Classic Fair tickets and ride wristbands by going online to Ticketmaster, ordering directly through our website or in person at the Fairground’s Box Office,” Hartley added.  “Another reason to purchase advance tickets is that admission and ride tickets can be accessed via mobile ticketing, eliminating the need to stand in ticket lines at the Fair.”
