Grammy Award Winning Country Star Carly Pearce to Perform at The 2025 Great New York State Fair

One of Nashville’s most popular singer-songwriters will perform at The Great New York State Fair later this summer as GRAMMY, CMA and ACM award-winning country star Carly Pearce will grace Suburban Park on Wednesday, August 27 at 8:00 p.m.

Praised for her timeless country sound and honest lyrics, Pearce's journey from leaving home at 16 years old to sing at Dollywood to now becoming an award-winning Grand Ole Opry member with four No. 1 hit singles is a testament to her dedication and passion for country music. Her latest album, “hummingbird,” received critical acclaim with its PLATINUM-certified lead single “we don’t fight anymore” featuring Chris Stapleton, earning Pearce her second GRAMMY nomination, and the blazing “truck on fire” currently rising on Country radio.

“We are so excited to host award-winning artist Carly Pearce, who has amazing talent and that will be sure to bring out a huge crowd,” said Julie LaFave, Fair Director. “We’re proud to be able to provide top-notch entertainment like this that will be sure to have fairgoers singing the night away.”
