Tickets
Pre-sale open until Mon, Oct 26

Tickets

Wristbands and tickets are cheaper in advance than at the gate. Pre-sale closes Monday, October 26 at 9pm; after that you can still buy on the day, at the higher price. Everything bought in advance is handed to you at the event — gates open at 2:45pm.

$15
Early Bird wristband — unlimited carnival games plus 3 tickets. First 100 only, maximum 2 per order.
$20
Pre-sale wristband — unlimited carnival games plus 3 tickets.
$10
12-ticket bundle — tickets work for games, concessions, crafts, face painting, tattoos, the guessing jar, song requests and raffles.
$5
Meal coupon — a slice of pizza and a bottle of water.
$45
Spooky bundle — one wristband, two ticket bundles and a meal coupon.
On the day wristbands are $25 and tickets are $1 each, or 12 for $10. Pizza, drinks, the bake sale and Anderson merchandise are bought separately with cash, Zelle, Venmo or PayPal — cash or Zelle preferred — and tickets are not accepted for those.
If the cost would be a barrier for your family, help is available in confidence — the pre-sale form explains who to contact.
