Golf Cart FAQs
Where can I purchase a golf cart permit?
Permits can be purchased through ShoWorks when completing the entry process. Golf Cart Permit can be added under "items" (Step 3) in the entry process. The order can then be reviewed prior to the final step where payment is required along with with entry costs.
Permits can be issued once payment is made and the golf cart form is submitted through the portal on the Ohio State Fair website with the additional documents (license and insurance). All steps MUST be completed prior to pass being issued.
If I am not making entries, can I still order a golf cart permit online?
Yes. However, golf cart permits are limited to exhibitors, judges, seasonal staff, vendors, and the Mid-Ohio Marauders.
To purchase a permit, visit the ShoWorks entry website and register as an exhibitor. Once registered, proceed to "items" (step 3). Add the golf cart permit to your cart and proceed to the payment screen (step 5). Payment must be made for the golf cart permit to be ordered.
For more information about golf carts for vendors, please visit the Vendor page.
How do I pay for my golf cart permit?
Credit card is the only accepted form of payment for golf cart permits. Credit card information will be accepted through the secure ShoWorks entry website.
Will my permit be mailed to me?
If all required materials (golf cart form, license, and proof of insurance) are submitted by July 3, a permit will be mailed to the applicant in early July.
If the required materials are submitted after July 3, applicants will have the opportunity to pick up their permit from the Entry Department upon arrival at the Ohio State Fair.
