More GO stations selling 'early bird' CNE tickets

TORONTO, Aug. 1, 2012 /CNW/ - In anticipation of the 2012 CNE season, GO Transit has begun selling 'early bird' CNE tickets at GO stations along the Lakeshore, Milton, Kitchener, Barrie and Richmond Hill lines, including Union Station. Until August 16, GO customers can purchase their discounted CNE passes at most GO stations and save up to 31% off the regular price.

Buying CNE tickets at Lakeshore line GO stations has become a summer tradition for many residents in those areas. As CNE tickets are available at even more GO stations across the region, more people will find out how easy it is to go to the CNE.

'Early bird' CNE ticket prices:

• Ride-all-day pass: $36.00 (admission and rides)
• Admission only: $12.00

Starting August 17 when the CNE opens for the season, GO Transit will continue to sell CNE tickets but at the regular price.
