The Du Quoin State Fair is gearing up for a spectacular evening of live music with the legendary Little River Band scheduled to perform at the Grandstand on Sunday, August 24, 2025. Known for their smooth harmonies and unforgettable classics, the band promises to deliver a performance that fans of all ages will enjoy.
With over 35 million records sold and a historic streak of Top 10 hits across six consecutive years, Little River Band remains one of the most iconic groups of the late 20th century. Their concerts are celebrated for showcasing the pristine vocals that have captivated audiences for decades.
“This is a phenomenal addition to the 2025 Du Quoin State Fair lineup,” said Jerry Costello II, Illinois Department of Agriculture Director. “Little River Band’s music transcends generations and continues to captivate audiences.”
Originally formed in Australia, Little River Band has evolved through the years but continues to bring the same passion and talent to the stage. Fans can look forward to classics like “Reminiscing” and “Lady,” performed by the current members of the band.
“Little River Band brings incredible talent and energy to the stage,” added Du Quoin State Fair Manager Luke Davison. “We're proud to have them at the Du Quoin Grandstand.”
Tickets go on sale Friday, May 16, at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster. The Du Quoin State Fair will run from August 22 to September 1.
