Opening for Brett Young will be multiplatinum singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Russell Dickerson. In 2020, the “Yours” singer received a nod in the “Best New Male Artist of the Year” category at the ACM awards.
Tickets for Brett Young with Russell Dickerson will go on sale Thursday June 10 at 10am on www.ticketmaster.com. Fairgoers who purchase grandstand tickets will receive a full refund if COVID-19 prevents the Illinois State Fair from being held.
