It's almost that time of the year, y'all.
With just 100 days until the 2025 State Fair of Texas, which begins on Sept. 26 and ends on Oct. 19, we're getting a Texas-sized music lineup that should get us excited for the fall.
Fairgoers will be able to experience music from many genres across the fairgrounds during all 24 days. There will be more than 100 national and local artists performing across the Chevrolet Main Stage, Bud Light Stage and Bank of Texas Stage. A weekly comedy series called "Deep Fried Comedy" is also happening at the Bank of Texas Stage on Friday nights.
The Fair is also entering its seventh year of partnership with State Fair Records, the East Dallas-based label that programs and produces the Bud Light Stage and Bank of Texas Stage. Because of its strong ties to local, regional and statewide music scenes, State Fair Records continues to curate the very best in Texas.
"After months of careful planning and collaboration, we are proud to present a diverse and dynamic roster of artists who embody the spirit and energy of the Most Texan Place on Earth,” says Jason Hays, SVP of Brand Experience, in a press release. “This year promises unforgettable performances, inspiring creativity, and a celebration of music in all its forms. We look forward to welcoming you to our Texas-sized music festival that will resonate long after the final note is played."
Names on this year's lineup include TLC, Brian McKnight, Joshua Ray Walker, Village People, Paul Wall, Cold War Kids, Hoobastank, Remy Reilly, DJ Sober, Sam Cormier, Billy Law, Gracen Wynn and more.
This year's theme is "Texas Shines Bright" and season passes are available for sale here. Check out the full list of dates, artists and times below.
