Perhaps one of the biggest changes this year will be the entrance for fairgoers who park in the parking lot on the grounds You will enter the fair on the west end of the grounds (by the old Poultry building). This change was designed to allow for a quicker and a more organized entrance The fair’s information booth will be staged right beside the fair entrance. Look for signs in the parking lot directing you on where to access the entrance Those coming in by foot will still utilize the same entrance as last year by the Centennial Gates (in the kids’ area by the carousel). There will be NO admission off Oak Avenue this year. In fact, the motocross will occupy that area beside the curling building If you purchase Paris Fair admission tickets online now, you save $2. They are regular price at the gates. General admission covers RCMP Musical Rides and Concerts You must purchase ride tickets separately. You can also prepurchase a sheet of
20 ride tickets for only $15 in the fair office or any one of our ticket outlets – Rest Acres Pharmacy, Northville Pharmacy, Community Health Hub & St George Hardware.
