Minnesota State Fair Announces Final Grandstand Show for 2026

The Minnesota State Fair has announced their final Grandstand show for 2026. That's it, the lineup has been finalized! And I have to say, the variety of genres is pretty cool. I don't remember seeing such a wide variety before.

Minnesota State Fair Adds CeCe Winans to Grandstand Lineup

The last artist to be added is award-winning gospel artist CeCe Winans. She's actually the most-awarded female gospel artist, so she's a big deal in that genre of music.

Her show will be on the last day of the fair, on Monday, September 7th, at 3 PM. Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 5th at 10 AM. Tickets are starting at $37 and go up to $59.25.

All of the Grandstand Shows for the 2026 Minnesota State Fair

Like I said earlier, we've got a wide variety of music genres coming to the grandstand this year.

You've got gospel, country, R&B, pop, classic rock. There really seems to be something for everyone, which I think is awesome. Plus the State Fair Amateur Talent Contest Finals, of course!

The talent contest finals are free to attend, but other than that, ticket prices range from $33 up to $184.75 across all of the shows. That's what concert tickets should cost. (Don't get me started about how expensive concert tickets are these days.)

Anyway, without further ado, here is our complete lineup for the 2026 Minnesota State Fair Grandstand. (And don't worry, I'm keeping my eyes peeled for the new foods to be announced later this summer!)
