S.D. State Fair bringing comedy to the grandstands

Posted

HURON — The South Dakota State Fair is pleased to announce Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias will perform at the S.D. State Fair Grandstand on Friday, Sept 1.

“Fluffy” is one of America’s most successful stand-up comedians performing to sold-out concerts around the world.

He is also one of the most watched comedians on YouTube with nearly a billion views.

Iglesias was included in The Hollywood Reporter’s “Top 40 Comedy Players” issue alongside comedy giants Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock and Lorne Michaels.

You can find Gabriel starring in his Netflix original comedy series “Mr. Iglesias” and catch his live performance comedy specials on Netflix, filmed in front of sold-out audiences in the Houston Center and Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium.

“It’s been many years since we’ve had a comedian at the State Fair,” said State Fairgrounds Manager Peggy Besch.

“It’s something we’ve been looking at for quite some time and we are excited to bring comedy to the grandstands with such a big name. We can’t wait to have the grandstand roar with laughter!”

Iglesias joins Lady A with Rowan Grace as part of the 2023 South Dakota State Fair grandstand line-up. More announcements are coming soon.

Presales for this family-friendly show begin on June 5 for those eligible for the Friends of the Fair VIP table presale, followed by backrest holder and Friends of the Fair ticket presales. General public ticket sales will begin June 20.
