Florida State Fair Adds Pinellas County Student Day

When the Florida State Fair Authority learned that school students in Pinellas County were not getting Presidents Day off, it immediately moved to accommodate the students on another day.

“We certainly want Pinellas students to have an opportunity to enjoy the Florida State Fair,” said Charles Pesano, Executive Director with the Fair Authority. “Pinellas County students will be receiving a free ticket to visit the Florida State Fair, just like students in surrounding counties,” Pesano added.

Since Pinellas students are off on February 14th this year rather than Presidents Day, the Fair Authority will designate February 14th as Pinellas County Student Day. Students will now have the opportunity to come enjoy the great rides, delicious food, and fun times and won’t have to buy an admission ticket to do it, just by bringing their provided ticket.

Additionally the Fair Authority will include February 14th in the new Midway Power Hour promotion. The Midway Power Hour will allow guests to experience some great rides for just one dollar from 12 noon until 1pm. Certain thrill and specialty rides are excluded.

“We have always stressed providing good value for our guests, that’s why we added a special Midway Power Hour,” Pesano said. “It was the right thing to do,” he concluded.
