Butler Amusements operates a “cashless” midway. Only our food concessions, ticket boxes and ticket kiosks directly accept cash, debit card, and credit cards. Customers first visit a ticket box. They will be presented with the option to redeem an advance sale carnival voucher for a ‘smart’ wristband and they have the opportunity to purchase a smart card in order to play carnival games.

The second option is to purchase an unlimited ride ‘smart’ wristband, and have the opportunity to purchase a smart card in order to play carnival games. The third option is to purchase game credits and individual ride credits which are tracked by a provided smart card.

The ticket kiosks are a convenient way for customers to reload their smart card, check their card balance and track their purchases. The smart cards can be reloaded at ticket kiosks and at ticket boxes.
Credits can be used interchangeably for rides and games plays.

The Fast Pass can only be purchased on-site and it is an optional purchase in addition to the ride wristband. The Fast Pass may sell out each day as only limited quantities are available.

On site, at the Fair: After an unlimited ride wristband is purchased, customers will have the option to add a fast pass for $10 which will allow them into separate, shorter ride lines on the day purchased.

If a customer has purchased a ride wristband prior to fair opening (either online or an advance sale hard ticket), they will have the option to add the fast pass to it when they redeem their credential at the carnival ticket kiosk once the Fair is open - as long as the Fast Pass has not sold out for that day.

Butler Ride Inspections:
All rides that operate in the state of California are inspected and permitted on an annual basis by California state inspectors. In addition, many Butler rides have already been inspected during the 2024 operating season four (4) times by private, independent inspectors before arriving in the state of Washington.

Butlers also perform a through internal, ride specific, daily, weekly, monthly, bi-annual and annual inspection of all rides onsite during each event.

In addition to what has been mentioned during the operating season, we are also subject to other independent and state inspectors including regular inspections by Washington State Labor & Industries.
