Maryland State Fair dates set; Big Time Rush headlining concert series

This year’s Maryland State Fair is scheduled for three weekends during the summer with pop group Big Time Rush headlining the musical performances.

The fair will be held Aug. 22 to 25, Aug. 29 to Sept. 2, and Sept. 5 to 8 in Timonium.

During the last weekend of the fair, Big Time Rush will perform in the 2024 Live! ON TRACK! concert series on Sept. 7 with Crash Adams as an opening act.

Gates will open at 5 p.m., and Crash Adams will start performing at 6 p.m. Big Time Rush will go onstage at 7:15 p.m.

General admission lawn tickets will be available for $55 each with fair admission included, and people may bring their own blankets and chairs. Tickets for the event will go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday.

The fair hasn’t announced other concerts in the series. Last year, there were two nights of shows planned, featuring All Time Low and QUINN XCII during the last weekend of the fair, though All Time Low was postponed due to weather issues.
