What’s the difference between a Festival Day Pass & Evening Pass?
Day passes are good for all activities on the Festival South Field from noon to 5pm, including all performances in the Entertainment Pavilion & live music on the Concert Stage.
Evening Passes are good beginning at 5pm for all activities included with Day Passes, plus access to Prime Viewing Area for fireworks.
Which pass should I choose, Day or Evening?
If you buy your tickets now, you don’t need to choose! Our Buy-One-Get-One offer means all Festival Day Passes purchased include a free Evening Pass!
Where do I find tickets for the Circus?
Patrons who have attended Maplewood Fourth of July in recent years are accustomed to seeing Circus performances listed amongst the ticket options. New for 2019 is the Entertainment Pavilion, which offers a day-long rotation of performances by magicians, clowns, jugglers, acrobats and other entertainers. You’ll also find in the Pavilion face painting, sand art, henna tattoos, balloon artists, caricatures, prize wheel, photo booth, costumed characters, and lots more…all included with your wristband purchase! It’s everything you love about the Big Top, but more immersive and with more to see and do! And with a full schedule of acts on the Performance Stage, you don’t need to choose a performance time now. After watching an act, you can roam the fairgrounds or take advantage of any of the interactive activities in the Pavilion, and then come back for another show. Enjoy as many performances as you’d like!
Do I need to purchase a ticket for my 1 year-old?
No. Tickets are not required for children under 2.
