Bell Tower Festival Carnival Ride Tickets Now Available

Carnival ride tickets for the 37th Annual Bell Tower Festival are now available.

Greene County Chamber Tourism and Events Coordinator Angie Pedersen says they are using the same company as last year’s festival, Amusement Associates of Altoona, for this year’s celebration. She points out that there will be more rides than last year and plans are to expand the space on Chestnut Street to include the added amount of rides.

The Fifty Fest ride tickets are available for $20 at the Chamber office in Jefferson and can be redeemed for a wristband the Friday of the festival which will allow you unlimited rides throughout the two-day event for no additional charge. All-day wristbands can be purchased the day of the festival for $25.

Call or stop by the Chamber to purchase the tickets.
