Y’all aboard for Stars, Stripes and Savings!
The State Fair is back and so is the best way to get there: DART! You’ll spend more time enjoying the fair -- and less time getting there. From fried food and live music to football games and Midway fun, the State Fair has something for everyone. Skip the parking and bring the fun!
This year -- on Saturdays, Sundays and Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples’ Day -- DART is modifying Orange Line operations to provide more trains through the Fair Park and downtown Dallas areas. This means the Orange Line will only operate between DFW Airport Station and Buckner Station on those days. Please consult the transfer recommendations below.
Also in 2026, DART is introducing State Fair Flyer service on Saturdays and Sundays. These special buses will offer a convenient one-seat ride from select locations. See below for more details.
If you’re attending the Allstate Red River Rivalry on Saturday, October 10, please visit DART’s Red River Rivalry page for more details about the service plan.
To make your ride as smooth as possible, DART recommends buying your passes with the GoPass® app. It’s the most convenient way to pay your fare, particularly if you’re traveling in a large group.
Please note: If you purchase your fare with a GoPass® Tap card, a contactless credit or debit card, or a payment-enabled mobile device, you must use a unique form of contactless payment for each rider. Your contactless card or digital wallet serves as your ticket and proof of payment.
