The Washington State Fair is known for being a large event. Part of this is the main stage and the musical acts that perform there. Earlier it was announced Nickelback would kick off the main stage with Jason Aldean closing things out.
Now more acts are announced.
And some rodeo.
With more announcements to come.
Perhaps the biggest name in this round of announcements is Steven Tyler. The Aerosmith frontman is touring behind his debut solo album We’re All Somebody From Somewhere. Then there is the country group Lady Antebellum who have a new album coming out later this year. Other country performers announced as appearing at the Washington State Fair this year are Easton Corbin and Granger Smith.
Then there is the Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association rodeo – the 84th held during the Washington State Fair. This multi-day event is one of the top rodeos in the country and an important step on the way to the PRCA finals which are taking place in Las Vegas in December.
By all means this is not the end of the announcements for mainstage entertainment during the 2017 Washington State Fair.
