Winston-Salem, N.C. (August 19, 2021) — The Carolina Classic Fair, Winston-Salem, NC, announced new ways to save money on tickets and rides at the Fair from October 1 to 10.  There are also new locations to purchase tickets.

New Ways to Save at the Fair

Welcome Back Friday is the first day of the Fair when admission will be $5 all day for everyone. “This our chance to welcome everyone back to the Fair,” said Fair Director, Cheryle Hartley. “We took the time off to plan for new and exciting entertainment, food and beverages, livestock exhibits, fine arts and crafts, a world-class carnival with numerous rides and games. Bring your family and friends for a fun time.”

On weekdays during the fair, Early Bird Special Admission is only $5 from opening to 4PM.

When the Wake Forest Demon Deacons take on the Louisville Cardinals in NCAA Football on October 2, you can grab one Louisville East Sideline football ticket and one ticket to the Fair that is good any day from October 1-10 for $28. Tickets can be purchased at carolinaclassicfair.com/tickets/.

Advance Tickets and Advance Sale Strates Ride Coupons are always the most economical way to attend the Fair with savings up to 40 percent off day-of tickets.
