Unfortunately, due to the severe storm and significant flooding throughout the fairgrounds, the Ocean County Fair will remain closed for the rest of tonight.
With standing water near electrical equipment and wiring, reopening would not be safe for our guests, vendors or staff. We are incredibly sorry, we truly hoped to welcome everyone back tonight.
All teachers who were scheduled to receive free admission tonight will receive free admission tomorrow instead.
Anyone who purchased a green wristband today may also return tomorrow for free. Even if the wristband has been cut off, please bring it with you and present it at the entrance.
Tomorrow is the final day of the fair, and we hope you’ll join us for one last day! Thank you so much for your patience and understanding. 💚
