Prohibited Items

Tickets

If you purchased mobile tickets, download or screenshot your tickets to your phone before arriving at the Fair.

Speculative ticket listings occur when unofficial sellers list tickets for sale before they actually have them, essentially betting they’ll be able to acquire them later, often to resell at a higher price. There is no guarantee these sellers will even obtain these tickets and the Fair has no way of knowing if they truly did. Only mostatefair.com and etix.com are official purchasing points for Missouri State Fair tickets. Unfortunately, the Missouri State Fair cannot verify that tickets bought from nonverified sellers will be honored.
