Allied Arts

Fall is just around the corner and that means it's time for fried food, arts and crafts, animals, rides and fun.  It's time for the Great State Fair of Oklahoma!  

You can experience the excitement of the fair without breaking the bank with your OKCityCard.  It will get you 2-for-1 advance gate admission, but you must plan ahead in order to get the discount.  This offer is valid through Wednesday, September 14th at the State Fair Arena Box Office when you present your OKCityCard in person.

Here's why you should use your OKCityCard to purchase your gate admission:

• It frees up more of your Fair budget for food!
• You won't have to wait in the ticket line at the gate, meaning more time for riding rides and seeing the animals and arts and crafts exhibits.
• You can use your 1/2 price admission to see the free concerts at the Chesapeake Energy Stage. In the past, I've seen awesome performances by Hanson, Boyz II Men and MC Hammer (I'm not sure what that tells you about my taste in music). This year, my personal concert must-see list includes Eli Young Band and the Village People. See the full concert line-up here.

To find out about everything that's going on at the State Fair this year, visit their web site at okstatefair.com.  To contact the box office, call (405) 948-6700.  

We'll see you at the Fair!


My girlfriends and I have a State Fair tradition - we all get giant corn dogs and plastic jugs of root beer.  You can't beat it!  I'll be heading over to the box office to pick up our 1/2 price tickets so that we can keep our tradition alive!
