The San Diego County Fair’s concert series just got grander with the addition of three more headliners.
Comedian Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias (June 18), musician Bret Michaels with Night Ranger (June 17) and DJ GRiZ with SIPPY (June 13) have been added to this year’s grandstand stage lineup.
Iglesias has been performing stand-up comedy since 1997, according to the bio on his website, performing on countless stages, including Madison Square Garden and The Sydney Opera House in Australia. He has also partnered with Netflix on four stand-up comedy specials and executive-produced and starred in his own television series “Mr. Iglesias.” Iglesias has appeared in San Diego several times in recent years, performing at the county fair in 2022, and last year, he was on a comedy panel with Jo Koy at Comic-Con International.
Michaels will collaborate with Night Ranger for a scheduled double concert on June 17, playing classic rock hits, according to event organizers. Michaels is the former frontman of the metal band Poison. Night Ranger is a rock band that formed in the early 1980s and released over 10 studio albums, including a 40-year tribute compilation album with the Contemporary Youth Orchestra.
GRiZ is a DJ and electronic music producer from Michigan and is slated to drop a genre-blending set with a mix of future funk, glitch-hop and bass-heavy drops, according to the fair. Sydney-born musician SIPPY will kick off the June 13 show.
Tickets for the three added shows go on sale to the general public on Friday at 10 a.m. at sdfair.com. Those who want early access to tickets can do so by subscribing to the San Diego County Fair’s email newsletter.
The concert series and the fair are both produced under the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which owns and operates the Del Mar Fairgrounds.
“Our concert series keeps getting bigger, bolder and more exciting,” said Carlene Moore, CEO of the 22nd District Agricultural Association, in a statement.
In March, Grammy Award-winners Nelly, Chicago and Maren Morris were added to the county fair’s summer concert lineup. Also announced last month were American pop band AJR and Mexican regional music bands Banda Machos, Conjuntos Primavera and El Coyote and Chuy Lizarraga.
The final set of performers is scheduled to be announced in May. Every ticket to the fair’s concert series includes a same-day admission.
