Purchase state fair advance discount gate admission and ride tickets with the click of a mouse! The Kentucky State Fair is offering advance discount gate admission and ride tickets through our online General Store. You receive the same great advance discount prices (also offered at participating Kroger locations) PLUS the tickets are sent in the mail right to your doorstep!

* $1 handling fee is applied to all online orders

Please read the information listed below before purchasing your tickets online:

  • The General Store only accepts the following credit cards: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover
  • IMPORTANT REMINDER: If you have purchased a ticket for one of the Kentucky State Fair concerts, that ticket includes gate admission. However, if you have purchased your concert ticket less than 10 days before the concert date, the ticket does not include gate admission. Therefore, general admission must be purchased separately for you to be admitted onto the grounds to see the concert.
  • If you are a senior citizen planning on coming to the fair on Senior Citizen Day (Tuesday, August 23), do not purchase admission tickets online or in advance. The 50-cent admission for seniors on that day is only valid at the gates.
  • Ride tickets are sold in sets of 30. All rides (including Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom) require two or more tickets. The larger the ride, the more tickets it takes. (Some height, weight and health restrictions apply)
  • If you are interested in purchasing tickets for a school tour group or senior tour group, please call (502) 367-5201 for group pricing.
  • Children two years old and under are admitted free of charge to the Kentucky State Fair.
  • Online advance discount gate admission and ride ticket sales will end at
    5 p.m. (EST) August 11.
