The Illinois State Fair has, at long last, announced when tickets will be on sale for the grandstand acts at this year’s fair, and it’s soon.
The fair says all ticket sales will start Saturday at 10am through Ticketmaster.
In addition to tickets for each individual show, officials say there will also be a special “Country Concert Blowout” package of tickets for each of the country shows on the bill this year — Jake Owen, Dierks Bentley, Cole Swindell, and Little Big Town. That’s $114, and will only be available for purchase by phone and at the Emerson Building on the State Fairgrounds, with a limit of 500 packages being sold.
The fair says they’re also offering separate tickets for a “StageSide Party” starting two and a half hours before each concert including food and early entry into each show.
