Most people spend 3-4 hours at the fair. \nAll programs are free with a valid park entrance pass. Passes may be purchased at the Phillip A. Hart Visitor Center in Empire\, Michigan\, and cost $25 (per vehicle) for seven days\, $45 for an annual Sleeping Bear Dunes pass\, or $80 (or less) for the America the Beautiful – National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands pass series.”
