GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (June 18, 2020) – The Big Rock Summer Tour, including performers RATT, Skid Row, and Quiet Riot, have canceled all shows for the remainder of 2020. This cancellation impacts the tour’s stop at the Nebraska State Fair previously scheduled for Sept. 5, 2020.

“Although we are saddened by The Big Rock Summer Tour’s cancellation, we understand that most performers are challenged with uncertainties at this time,” said Jaime Parr, interim executive director. “The State Fair team continues to plan for various versions of the 2020 Nebraska State Fair for our guests, partners, participants, sponsors, and the community.”
