If you’re unable to score a ticket to the Eras Tour this summer, there’s no need for “Bad Blood.” The Great New York State Fair has a Taylor-made opportunity for you to “Shake it Off,” as one of the world’s top Taylor Swift inspired tribute artists, DJ Swiftie, will perform on Chevy Court Stage on Friday, August 30 at 9:00 p.m.
From “Cruel Summer” to “Anti-Hero” and every anthem in between, DJ Swiftie has amassed an impressive following with a themed dance party crafted around everyone’s favorite Taylor Swift songs that promises to have Swifties dancing and singing the night away.
One of the world’s premiere tribute artists, DJ Swiftie has entertained audiences across United States and is currently performing as part of a coast-to-coast tour with over 60 shows lined up in 2024.
“This is one that I personally can’t wait for,” said Interim Fair Director Julie LaFave. “The Fair is all about making memories and sharing them with loved ones. I can picture people of all ages dancing and laughing in Chevy Court and creating a summer memory that will last a lifetime. What a fun opportunity for Taylor Swift fans and music lovers alike to have a blast listening to some of their favorite songs at The Great New York State Fair.”
