HAMBURG -- — The Erie County Fair is celebrating their 150th year at the Hamburg Fairgrounds with a visit from some top musical acts and a deal that will bring music to fairgoers ears literally.
(pssh...Hate reading? We've included the complete lineup at the bottom of this article.)
The Buffalo.com Grandstand is offering fairgoers four free shows. Two of those shows includes the new $20 "preferred track" ticket which is priority seating for those looking to spend some money to sit in the center track sections. That's available for the Oak Ridge Boys concert on August 13th and the Midland concert on August 14th. Regular seating is free with admission to the Fair.
The Fab Four: The Ultimate Tribute concert on August 11th is also free with admission to the Fair.
This year's musical lineup kicks off with a special concert from the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra on Wednesday, August 8th at 8 p.m. This will be only the fifth time the BPO has performed at the Fair and the first since 2014. The show is free with gate admission and does not require a Grandstand ticket.
