Flo Rida to Headline 2026 Mississippi State Fair

This year, the annual Mississippi State Fair will run from October 8-18, 2026, at the Mississippi Coliseum in Jackson. A new local concert series is being added to the many annual state fair attractions this year and will feature live musical performances from local bands across the state. Headlining the state fair this year is A-list hip-hop artist Flo Rida, performing on Thursday, October 15, at 7:00pm in the Coliseum.

This year, the Mississippi State Fair's theme is "Let Freedom Ring!". During the announcement of Flo Rida as this year's headliner, Commissioner of Agriculture and Commerce Andy Gipson introduced the new three-day $20 Patriot Pass and said the Mississippi State Fair will "celebrate our great nation, pay tribute to the service and sacrifice of our veterans, and provide unforgettable experiences for families from across Mississippi and beyond."

Tickets for Flo Rida start at $35 and include fair admission. Tickets for the fair can be bought at MSStateFair.com and the Coliseum box office, and tickets for Flo Rida can be bought at Ticketmaster.com.
