(1) Existing law governs expositions and fairs in this state, including the California ​Exposition and State Fair, county and district fairs, and citrus fruit fairs. Existing law defines courtesy pass admission as an admission without payment of the admission charge to any state, county, district, or citrus fruit fair, except, among other things, admission of any military personnel in uniform.

This bill would expand that exception to include the admission of any military personnel, regardless whether they are in uniform.

(2) If a charge is made for admission to enter a state, county, district, or citrus fruit fair, existing law authorizes, among others, military personnel in uniform to be admitted to the fairgrounds without the payment of the established admission price.

The bill would expand that authorization to include the admission of any military personnel without payment, regardless whether they are in uniform.
