Rock and Roll Hall of Fame®-inducted icons and rock music legends Def Leppard will bring their electrifying performance to the Illinois State Fair on Saturday, August 16, for an unforgettable night of rock ‘n' roll. Known for their timeless hits and energetic live shows, the evening will include performances from Def Leppard's legendary catalog, including chart-topping classics hits like "Pour Some Sugar On Me," "Photograph," and "Love Bites."
"Our team has worked hard to elevate the quality of musical acts at the Grandstand during the Illinois State Fair," said Illinois Department of Agriculture Director Jerry Costello II. "Def Leppard has a core memory tied to every one of their songs. For me, it's ‘Photograph.’ I'm looking forward to taking it all in at the Illinois State Fair."
"Def Leppard's catalog of hits is iconic. Songs like ‘Pour Some Sugar On Me,’ ‘Foolin'’ and ‘Rock Of Ages’ immediately have you singing along, maybe strumming an air guitar," said Illinois State Fair Manager Rebecca Clark. "Their energy is infectious for fans of all ages."
Tickets for Def Leppard will go on sale Saturday, November 16 at 10 AM via Ticketmaster.
