Cyber Monday was full of great deals and discounts including an amazing offer which saved residents 50% off tickets to the Great New York State Fair. The deal was so great in fact it sold out. So why am I telling you this? Because the sale was extended!

After the reduced tickets sold out in just over two hours Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that they would extend the sale with an additional 25,000 tickets.

"The Cyber Monday sellout and jump in national ranking is proof positive that our record investment in the Great New York State Fair is paying off,” Governor Cuomo said. “In just one year, the Fair has raised its profile from coast-to-coast as a top destination, attracting more visitors to Central New York than ever before. Through this Phase Two Task Force, we will continue to transform the fairgrounds and improve the Fair experience for New Yorkers and visitors alike.”

With the discount fair goers can get tickets for under $4 per person, that's 50% off the advanced purchase rate and 70% off the gate pricing. Tickets are first come, first served and there is a limit of 8 tickets per transaction. To purchase your tickets visit www.etix.com.
