“We are very excited and appreciative of the opportunity to once again work with City National Bank to sell tickets for the Annual State Fair of West Virginia,” State Fair CEO Kelly Collins said. “This gives people who don’t live near the fairgrounds a convenient opportunity to purchase their tickets at the discounted rate.”
Participating locations will have State Fair tickets on sale through the close of business on July 31. Only cash or checks will be accepted; credit cards cannot be accepted. For a complete list of participating locations, please visit www.statefairofwv.com.
