As is typically the case, the Minnesota State Fair Grandstand is offering a diverse lineup of entertainment that includes country (Old Dominion, Hank Williams Jr.), pop (Meghan Trainor, a Taylor Swift tribute), classic rockers (Def Leppard, Daryl Hall) and not one, but two hip hop acts (Nelly, Atmosphere).
In recent years, the likes of the Jonas Brothers, Blake Shelton and Motley Crue had top ticket prices of more than $200. This year, only one does, but it’s a record-breaking $292 for Def Leppard.
Tickets are available through Etix, by phone at 800-514-3849 and in person at the State Fairgrounds Ticket Office. All concerts start at 7 p.m. unless otherwise noted.
