Tickets for the Dixon May Fair grandstand shows, fair admission, and carnival wristbands are now available for purchase, according to a press release.

The Fair has a number of opportunities to save money and time when folks buy Fair and Grandstand event tickets early using their online ticket system.

The convenience of online ticketing is available for grandstand events, carnival ride wristbands, and admission. (Online processing fees apply.)

The First Northern Bank Grandstand ticket prices for Flying U Bull Riding on Friday, the Maxx Kakl Tractor & Truck Pulls on Saturday, and the Moondog Motorsports Demolition Derby on Sunday will be $40 for all ages. Grandstand event tickets purchased in advance will include Fair admission. Tickets purchased the day of the event do NOT include Fair admission. Advance purchase is recommended, as all Grandstand events have all been sell-outs in past years.

For parents, the All-you-can-ride wristbands are a great way to go for kids with an unlimited appetite for spectacular rides. Butler Amusements is offering wristbands, which allow the rider unlimited rides on any one day, for $35 in advance through May 7. The wristbands are good for any one day of the Fair. During the Fair, wristbands will be $40.

There are additional discounts on Fair admission as well. Advance purchase adult tickets online are just $10 and will be $15 at the gate, a 33% savings. KUIC Radio sponsors Thrifty Thursday, May 8, when all admissions are just $5. And on Kids Day, Friday May 9, all kids 12 and under are admitted for Free.

The Dixon May Fair, May 8-11, is located at 655 S. First St., Dixon. The website for ticket purchases is www.DixonMayFair.com.

The box office will open Monday, April 21, 9a-5p, Monday through Friday.
