    Lots of food, rides, and great shows. The Super Dogs are a blast and the Tiny Tom doughnuts are a must. Always enjoy the ski lift at night too :)

    The cheapest thing to eat is the 99 cent tacos in the food building! Also don't forget to refill your water bottles, right outside the food building towards the entrance.

    Park in Liberty Village instead if visiting on a Saturday or Sunday. Much cheaper than at CNE parking lots, i.e.) $3 at Green P at Hanna Ave.
