Wisconsin State Fair ticket exchange opens Monday for rain-canceled finale
Wisconsin State Fair
WEST ALLIS, Wis. - Wisconsin State Fair’s Ticket Exchange runs Monday, Nov. 10, through Saturday, Nov. 15, offering eligible fairgoers a chance to swap unused tickets and vouchers from the canceled final Sunday of the 2025 Fair for 2026 admission.
What we know:
Record-setting rains forced the cancellation of the last day of the 2025 Wisconsin State Fair. Organizers say fairgoers who could not attend that Sunday may be able to exchange their Sunday tickets and vouchers for the 2026 Fair during the window next week.
"Our Fairgoers are like family," said Shari Black, Chief Executive Officer of Wisconsin State Fair Park. "And while the end of this year’s State Fair was not what we had hoped for, the 10 days that we came together to celebrate Wisconsin was truly unforgettable. We’re hoping those eligible take this offer to help us celebrate 175 years of showing off Wisconsin in 2026 as a little ray of sunshine."
