The Henderson County Fair Board is excited to announce the lineup for the 2025 concert at the fairgrounds! Tyler Farr, recognized as “one of the best male vocalists in country music today” by Taste of Country, will be headlining the event on July 25, 2025, in Stronghurst, Illinois.
Farr made a splash in the country music scene with the release of his debut album, *Redneck Crazy*, which quickly climbed to No. 2 on the Billboard Country Albums Chart and No. 5 on the Billboard Top 200. He has achieved three No. 1 hits, including the emotionally charged “Whiskey in My Water” and the poignant “A Guy Walks Into a Bar.” His sophomore album, *Suffer in Peace*, continued his rise to stardom by debuting in the Top 5 on both the Billboard Top 200 Albums and Billboard Country Albums Charts. This made him the only solo male country artist in the past decade to have his first two studio albums debut in the Top 5 on the Billboard 200 Chart.
Opening the show are Jake and Mikayla, a married duo from Central Illinois. They deliver a high-energy country music performance that incorporates elements of Outlaw, Rockabilly, Gospel, Bluegrass, and more.
The concert will take place at the Henderson County Fairgrounds in Stronghurst, Illinois. Gates will open at 6 PM, and the show will begin at 7:30 PM. General Admission and Party Pit tickets will go on sale on Friday, February 21, 2025, at 8 AM. Tickets will be available at www.hendersoncofair.com!
