Welcome back, folks! State Fair of Texas is returning; here’s a full list of performers

The State Fair of Texas will be back in its full glory in 2021.

The 24-day celebration of Texas runs from Sept. 24 through Oct. 17 at Fair Park in Dallas.

The 2020 version was limited to patrons driving through the park to get a taste of the fair’s famous fried foods because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tickets are now available at bigtex.com.

This year’s theme is “Howdy, Folks!” It’s a nod to Big Tex’s famous greeting and a welcome return to normalcy.
$2 for 2 months

“This year’s commemorative theme art encompasses the foundation of what the Fair is all about — being together,” State Fair president Mitchell Glieber said in a release. “We’re excited to make up for lost time and help families and friends from all walks of life reconnect again, while making new memories to last a lifetime.”

The 135-year fair will include 77 music and entertainment acts from Texas across multiple stages throughout the venue. For a complete list of all Fair performers check out the State Fair website.
