Come join the North Carolina Mountain State Fair team and be part of one of Western North Carolina’s premier fall events. The fair is looking to fill several temporary jobs, including ticket takers, ticket sellers, law enforcement/security, and workers for the entry department and information booths.
Pay ranges from $15-$16 an hour for ticket takers and general employees to up to $50 an hour for sworn officers.
“The Mountain State Fair offers a great opportunity to earn some extra money and be part of a Western N.C. tradition that creates lifelong memories for so many people every year,” said Sean McKeon, Mountain State Fair general manager. “It takes a lot of people to put on an event like the Mountain State Fair, so we hope you will consider joining our team.”
The 2025 Mountain State Fair runs from September 5-14. Available positions can be found online at www.wncagcenter.org/p/mountainstatefair. The link to “Job Opportunities” (upper right corner) will take interested applicants to a list of jobs and the online application.
