Franklin County Fair Hours
Friday & Saturday, 9 am -11 pm
Sunday-Thursday, 9 am -10 pm
I had the same trouble last night – it seems to be an ongoing issue. Many of the events are on the Facebook page if you scroll there – have you tried that?
I cannot get the Franklin County Fair events to load. Their web connection seems to be down!
We aren’t affiliated with the fair, but it appears that those are only good on Sunday, and are $15 on other days. You could always check with someone at the Franklin County Fair or website to verify though.
Hi! I see unlimited ride tickets are discounted on Sunday, July 14 to $10. Does that mean they are only good for Sunday or is that just the day you can get the discount BUT can be used M-F? I hope that makes sense. We want to purchase for our teens but we can’t go Sunday. Thank you for your time!
Thanks for the compliments. We do have a roundup of concerts – here they are! https://www.columbusonthecheap.com/free-outdoor-concert-roundup/
Love the site. You have probably already done this but I can not find the information. Will you do a day with all the free concerts for thus summer or have a link posted to a complete run down if all free call concerts for thus summer. Thank you.
