Florida State Fair Offers FLASH SALE For 2023 Tickets and Armbands

It's almost that time! Only 97 days until the Florida State Fair is back, but who's counting. The iconic event is making its return at the Florida State Fairgrounds from February 10-21, 2023. For TODAY ONLY from 10a-10p the fair is offering a flash sale on admission tickets and armbands. Advanced tickets are cheaper than they are at the gate, starting at just $10. Anyday armbands will cost $18 with no added fees.

The state fair is known to be Florida's fried food capital! Each year they offer some of the most ridiculous (in a good way) fried foods! Some may remember the doughnut burger, funnel cake tacos, loaded pickle nachos and deep-fried banana pudding.

On top of your unlimited thrills with the great armband deal, guests can enjoy live entertainment all around the fair.

The Orlando theme parks are always looking to entice you with new rides and attractions - but to make room, sometimes that means doing away with some older, dated and less popular ones. Universal Orlando announced last night that 5 attractions that are going away. You will have until January 15, 2023 to visit them though if you'd like to experience them one more time, according to a tweet last night. No word yet on what's replacing them. Here are the attractions that will be going away... as well as a handful that will remain open.

This one first opened in 1980! E.T.'s home planet is dying and it's your mission to help save it on a flying bike.

This was a first rollercoaster for little ones. Lots of puns and corny jokes like the cartoon.

Inspired by the movies "An American Tail" and "Fievel Goes West," this playground has oversized props and a 30 foot spider web, rope bridges, a giant cowboy boot and a 1,000 gallon cowboy hat.

A showcase featuring some animals from popular movies and TV shows.

Another playground... this one had a water play area and kids could blast and launch thousands of soft foam balls.

Last on the chopping block is this spot for kids to say hello to the big green ogre, his wise-cracking sidekick and Princess Fiona.

Get your photo with SpongeBob and peek inside a replica of his pineapple house.

A sad loss for fans of Madagascar, Trolls, Puss in Boots, and Kung Fu Panda. This interactive experience lets kids meet and dance with the characters.
