    We are thinking of bringing our grade one classes. Are supervisors admitted free, or do they need to pay an admission as well?

    Thanks

      Karen, Thanks for your comment/question. If you are arriving with the school buses on Thursday or Friday morning, the price of admission is $2 per student and $2 per chaperone. Parking attendants will collect your addmission on the bus just as you arrive. If you are coming through the gate not as a school group, regular admission applies. Also check out the Education pages on this website for more information.

    I was thinking of getting wristbands for my kids for the rides. Where can I get them from and do they still have to pay to get into the fair if they have the wristbands?

      Patricia, Great question/comment! Check out the Buy Tickets page for midway ticket locations. http://www.markhamfair.ca/buy-tickets/ You can also buy them online direct from World’s Finest Shows. Remember they are only on sale until the Wednesday before the fair. Wristbands cannot be purchased during the fair. Writsbands do not include admission, however you can buy that online too if you prefer. See you at the fair!

      Hi Annie,
      Thanks for your comment/question. Any school groups, including public school, high school and adult ESL groups coming to the Fair , Thursday and Friday during the day (during school hours) when the school kids come, (not at night and not on the weekend) are charged $2.00 per student and $2.00 per adult supervisor. The students must arrive as a group and not individually.
      See you at the fair!

    Out daughter is in the baby contest, do one of the parents get in free as she is entered in an event?

      The baby contest doesn’t give out free passes, sorry. But you will have the adoration of friends and family and the attention of many photographers! There are also some pretty nice gifts and prizes. Did you read the article by Rogers Gardham about the baby contest? Good luck and see you at the fair!

    First time visitors to the Markham fair. We would like to bring our grandsons to the monster trucks on Thursday. What is the cost of the tickets? Do we pay admission into the fairgrounds and into the monster trucks?

    Hi,
    If i’m planning to come on the weekend, can i just buy admission tickets at the door or do i need to buy them in advance?
    And do you have a link for a schedule of times of each show/location?
    Does the admission fee pay for All the shows ie. dirt bike, monster trucks?
    Thanks
