Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, David Lee Roth, is the latest performer to join the Grandstand lineup at the Du Quoin State Fair this summer. The legendary rocker is scheduled to headline on Saturday, August 23rd.

Roth, the voice of Van Halen, left an indelible mark on rock music while helping define the sound of the 80s with anthems like “Jump” and “Panama.” His high-energy performances and unique vocal style quickly made Van Halen one of the biggest rock bands of the 80s.

Fairgoers will see in person why Roth continues to captivate audiences and prove why he remains a true rock and roll legend.

Tickets for the David Lee Roth concert will be available this Friday beginning at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster.

The Du Quoin State Fair runs from August 22 - September 1.
