A limited number of discounted “Pay-One-Price” tickets for the carnival at the 2025 Northwest Montana Fair & Rodeo are on sale now at all Whitefish Credit Union branches and the fairgrounds office.

Purchased in advance, the tickets cost $30 each and can be exchanged at carnival ticket booths for a wristband that allows one person unlimited rides on most attractions for one day. The tickets can be used any one day of the carnival from Aug. 12 and are the lowest priced way to experience the rides. Fairgoers can purchase the tickets until 5 p.m. on Aug. 11 or while supplies last. Wristbands will also be available at all carnival ticket booths during the fair, but the price will be higher than the discounted tickets.

Admission onto the fairgrounds is a separate fee at the gate and costs $8 for adults and teens, $5 for seniors age 65 and over, and $5 for children age six to 12. Children age five and under are admitted free of charge.

Fairgoers can save money by purchasing admission tickets until Aug. 15 or while supplies last at any Whitefish Credit Union branch in Kalispell, Columbia Falls or Whitefish during normal banking hours. Advance admission tickets are $5 per person, regardless of age.

Thursday, Aug. 14 is Senior/Kids Day at the fair. Seniors ages 65 and over and children ages 12 and under are admitted onto the fairgrounds free of charge that day.
