Walker Hayes to perform at the Central States Fair in August

RAPID CITY, S.D. — Walker Hayes is set to perform at the Central States Fair Friday, August 26 as part of the Black Hills Energy Concert Series.

Originally from Mobile, Alabama, Hayes’ album “Country Stuff The Album” came out in 2021 and features the smash hit “Fancy Like” which has topped every sales and streaming chart since its release.

“When Hayes hit the charts he was an instant fan favorite”, said Central States Fair Manager Ron Jeffries. “We are so excited to be the first event to bring him to South Dakota.”

Joining Hayes is Diamond Rio, a country band that became the first country music group in history to reach No. 1 with a debut single

Tickets go on sale June 15, and the Central States Fair will be held from August 19-27 at the Central States Fairgrounds in Rapid City.
