SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WAND) — Country music hitmaker Jake Owen will headline the Illinois State Fair Grandstand on Friday, August 8.
“August 8 is Agriculture Day at the Illinois State Fair, and this is the perfect way to celebrate,” said Jerry Costello II, Director of the Illinois Department of Agriculture. “Country artists are a crowd favorite in central Illinois, and we are excited to bring Jake Owen to the Grandstand.”
