Monday morning on the Dwyer & Michaels Show, Shawn Loter stopped by to announce the rock act for the 2026 Mississippi Valley Fair.

Acts Announced So Far

So far the acts that have been announced feature some of the biggest names in music.

4th Tuesday: Brad Paisley

It all kicks off with Brad Paisley, who has too many hits to just pick one or two - but you'll know him best for songs like She's Everything, Waitin' On A Woman, and Mud On The Tires.

5th Wednesday: Keith Urban

Keith Urban was announced to be one of the acts last year when Shawn Loter took the stage at opening night of the fair.

6th Thursday: Jessie Murph

Known for her hits with some other artists like Koe Wetzel and Jelly Roll, Jessie Murph is making a huge name for herself at just 21-years-old. She's all over the radio with hits like High Road, Wild Ones, and Touch Me Like A Gangster.

7th Friday: Tucker Wetmore

Tucker Wetmore has been on the rise since his first hit with Wine Into Whiskey in 2023, and then he followed up in 2024, Wind Up Missing You.

9th Sunday: Craig Morgan & Neil McCoy

Two well know, well established country artists will be wrapping up the fair on Sunday with a double show from Craig Morgan & Neil McCoy.

Craig Morgan had one of the top songs of 2006 with That's What I Love About Sunday.

Neal McCoy had his hits with The Shake, No Doubt About It, and Wink.

The Rock Act

Saturday night has been the big question - who will be the rock act for the 2026 Mississippi Valley Fair, and it's finally been announced.

The Goo Goo Dolls will be hitting the Grandstand for Saturday, August 8th, alongside ANOTHER act.

Known for their hits like, Name, Better Days, and Slide, they're a name in rock that's infiltrated every aspect of the business with music being used in movies and television, as well as breaking the charts with their releases.

On Billboard's "Top 100 Pop Songs 1992–2012" chart, the #1 song was their song Iris.

Kicking the night off will be Neon Trees with their hits like Animal, Sleeping With A Friend, and Everybody Talks. 

Fun Cards

The Mississipppi Valley Fair Fun Cards are on sale now - just $100 for six nights music.

It was announced that there will be single day tickets available for this year's Grandstand acts - but if you're looking at two or more concerts, the Fun Card is the way to go.
