STATE FAIR CONCERTS 2019
State fairs are an annual tradition for many across the U.S.
From Alaska to Florida, and nearly all states in between, state fairs unite communities around food, farm land and music.
But state fairs in 2019 are so much more than deep fried desserts and petting zoos: They play home to some of the best summer concerts of the season.
While music festivals draw national headlines, state fair concerts provide unforgettable, local entertainment experiences of millions of Americans.
Vivid Seats breaks down all the great state fair concert options for 2019, state by state, as well as highlighting notable regional and county fair concerts across the country.
