The iconic heavy metal band that made history as the first to top the Billboard Top 200 chart is making a raucous return to the Great New York State Fair this summer! Concertgoers are invited to the Chevy Court Stage at 6 p.m. on Opening Day, Wednesday, August 26, to experience legendary rockers Quiet Riot perform their signature hits and fan-favorite classic rock anthems.

Originally formed in Los Angeles in the early 1970s, Quiet Riot reformed in 1980 and skyrocketed to international fame with the release of their 1983 album, Metal Health. The band made a memorable appearance at The Fair in 2023, delivering their biggest hits over the years, including “Don’t Wanna Let You Go,” “Mama Weer All Crazee Now,” and their chart-topping smash “Cum On Feel the Noize,” which has appeared in numerous TV shows, movies, and the Broadway musical Rock of Ages.
