Advance purchase is recommended, as all Grandstand events were sell-outs in 2013.
For parents, the all-you-can-ride wristbands are a great way to go for kids with an unlimited appetite for the spectacular rides.
Butler Amusements is offering wristbands, which allow the rider unlimited rides on any one day, for $24 in advance, and 30-coupon booklets for just $20 through May 7.
The wristbands are good for any one day of the Fair. During the Fair, wristbands will be $29 and ride coupons will be $1 each. Each ride takes 3-5 coupons.
