What does my ticket purchase get me?
Fairgrounds – a Fairgrounds admission ticket grants you access to our Fairgrounds so you can enjoy all the shows and attractions we have to offer.
Rodeo & Concert – a ProRodeo & Concert ticket grants you access to our Fairgrounds, as well as the Main Arena for the ProRodeo & Concert performance. You do not need to purchase Fairgrounds admission if you have purchased a ProRodeo & Concert ticket.
Carnival – a Carnival Wristband purchase only grants you permission to ride carnival rides on the day of redemption. It does not grant you access to the Fairgrounds.

BBQ Austin – a BBQ Austin ticket grants you access to all public tasting tents and other onsite vendors.
Kick Open the Chutes – a Kick Open the Chutes ticket grants you access to select behind-the-scenes areas of the main rodeo arena, including the arena floor.
