This is the second year of the revamped fair after organizers switched partnerships to North American Midway Entertainment, the largest amusement ride supplier in North America.
The show marks the first paid concert event hosted at the theater since its opening in December. The theater was the first of three projects funded by grants from the Mississippi Outdoor Stewardship Fund.
