10,000 $2 NY State Fair tickets sell out in a flash - syracuse.com

Geddes, N.Y. -- The 10,000 $2 New York State Fair tickets that went on sale at 6 a.m. today are gone.

The discounted tickets sold out in less than two hours, according to fair officials. Fair Director Troy Waffner said on CNYCentral shortly after 6 a.m. that half the tickets were already sold.

The sale launched the state fair’s new ticket prices for 2020. General admission at the gate will drop from $10 to $5. Online tickets will be even cheaper. Starting April 1, online tickets cost $3. Those tickets are good for any day at the fair -- and can be purchased after the fair opens in August.

The changes also mean there will be no more $6 advance ticket sales that were sold at places such as Wegmans and Price Chopper. And there will be fewer discounted or dollar days announced as the fair gets underway.

Labor Day will remain Dollar Day. Admission and midway rides will be $1.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has proposed extending the fair by five days to make it an 18-day festival. That proposal is part of the state budget, which the Legislature is expected to act on by April 1. For now, Waffner said, the fair is planning for a fair that runs Aug. 21 to Sept. 7.
