New this year: 3,000 General Admission tickets will be available on show days beginning at 11am – FREE* at the PNE Amphitheatre Box Office, and online at ticketleader.ca(with a $3 service fee). It’s a good idea to grab a ticket early if you really want to see a band or for the more popular acts.

These General Admission tickets will get you into the venue but do not guarantee a seat, as demand will vary from show to show. Note: Max 2 per person.

If you’re hoping to save some money on the price of admission to the Fair, there are many promo days that’ll save you some cash. Check them out to see if any of the days work for you.
