September 21, 2016

Grammy nominated, Aloe Blacc will now kickoff the South Carolina State Fair’s concert lineup on October 12th at 7pm for FREE. In addition to a free concert, the fair offers $1 admission on opening day as well.

“While finalizing entertainment for the fair, we decided to really go big on opening day by adding another free concert,” said South Carolina State Fair General Manager, Gary Goodman. “October was a tough month for our state last year and we know there’s still so much work to be done to continue the recovery process after the floods. We want to do our part by providing accessible, family-friendly entertainment for all.”

 

Concert tickets are now available online at SCStateFair.org
