They've looked for deals that can help them cut down on costs. 2 News looked at some simple ways to save here.
Destiny Kissee likes to come to the fair each year with her family.
She said she budgeted some extra money to make it to the fair this year. "I like to put a little bit of money away before the fair starts," she said. "It happens the same time every year, so we know when it's gonna happen."
She said there are so many things to buy at the fair, she has to be careful.
"I come here mostly for the food, so that kinda adds up. And then the trinkets inside," she said.
Amanda Blair, vice president of the Tulsa State Fair, said the fair is trying to keep prices the same as they have during the last few years.
"Our gate prices have stayed consistently the same over the past several years, it's been $15," she said. "The youth and senior price is $10."
To help fairgoers save money, the fair is also providing complimentary shuttle picks up near 31st and New Haven for some select days.
