REGINA – From the rides to the deep-fried corn dogs, the Queen City Ex offers a number of ways to get your heart racing, but the price tag can add up.
General admission and a pass for unlimited rides cost $12 and $47, respectively, at the gate, and on-site parking adds another $6.

A number of visitors opted for public transit instead of finding and paying for parking.
Carrie Hackel, Evraz Place public relations and promotions coordinator, recommended maximizing the fun by taking in some free events, such as free concerts and other live entertainment.
Taking the time to shop around can also pay off.
On Sunday, admission will be free between 9:30-11 a.m. for the Mosaic Flip For Hunger Family Day.
