A carnival is coming to Miramar with thrill rides, family fun and raffle prizes
Get ready for rides, food and games at the St. Stephen Catholic Parish Carnival.
The fun begins on Friday, Jan. 9, for a 10-day run at 2000 State Road 7, and will close Sunday, Jan. 18.
The carnival features classic carnival rides from Hildebrand Amusement Rides, including a ferris wheel, kid-friendly coasters, a pendulum ride and drop tower, as shown in a promotional video.
The parish has not announced a price of admission, but ride tickets and raffle tickets are now available for purchase.
One raffle ticket is $5 while a book of six tickets is $25, and carnival-goers can enter to win prizes of $1,000, $500 and $250.
Advance ride tickets are available for $25 at the church until 3 p.m. on Jan. 9 and are good for one session.
Pick them up at the St. Stephen Catholic Parish building located at 6044 SW 19th St., around the corner from the carnival grounds.
A church representative told the Miramar News that the carnival is open from 6 to 10 p.m. from Monday to Thursday, 6 to 11 p.m. on Friday, and 1 to 11 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
Each day the carnival will have classic fair food such as funnel cake, and kid-friendly activities, too.
