HAMBURG, N.Y. — The Erie County Fair is lowering admission prices this year and introducing new ways for visitors to save on food and rides ahead of opening day.

From July 7-August 7, advanced sale admission will cost $15 per ticket, while regular admission will be $19 from August 8-23. Visitors who arrive between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. can purchase early bird admission for $16.
