Western Carolina Fair Brings Excitement and Community Spirit to Aiken

Western Carolina Fair Lights Up Aiken

Aiken, S.C. is buzzing with excitement as the Western Carolina Fair rolls back into town! From thrilling rides to mouthwatering food, this annual event is sure to bring out the fun in everyone. Running every day until October 20, the fair promises a fantastic time for all ages.

Admission Details

If you’re planning a trip, admission tickets are reasonably priced at $10 at the gate. For those looking to enjoy unlimited rides, consider picking up a mega pass for $30. It’s a great deal if you want to hop on those rides as many times as you can!

Timing is Everything

The fair opens its gates at 5 p.m. on weekdays, which is perfect for an after-work adventure. For weekend warriors, enjoy an earlier start with gates opening at 12 p.m. If you’re someone who loves fair food but isn’t interested in the rides, there’s even a special treat for you. From Wednesday to Friday, the fairgrounds will be welcoming food enthusiasts from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., so you can indulge in your favorites without the thrill of rides.

Special Days to Remember

This year, there’s even more reason to visit. On Wednesday and Thursday, gate admissions are free! That’s right, you can stroll through the fairgrounds, soak in the atmosphere, and, of course, savor some delicious fair treats without spending a dime on admission.

A Kind Gesture for Hurricane Relief

Fair Organizers Notice Increased Attendance

This year, fair organizers have noted an increase in early attendees. As Doug Wolf, a board member for the Western Carolina Fair, put it, “I think the hurricane’s got people wanting to come because they have been stuck in the house for the last few weeks.” It seems like folks are eager to get out and enjoy some community spirit after such a tough time!
