The Illinois State Fair is thrilled to announce that The Chainsmokers, Grammy Award-winning, RIAA Diamond-certified duo, will perform at the Illinois Lottery Grandstand stage on Friday, August 15th.

Known for their boundary-defying fusion of pop, indie, electronic, alternative, and rock, Drew Taggart and Alex Pall have consistently shaped the landscape of popular music.  Fans can expect an electrifying performance featuring some of their biggest hits like Closer, Something Just Like This, the GRAMMY-winning Don't Let Me Down, and anthemic new classics from Addicted to the cross-genre smash, Don't Lie.

Since their independent breakthrough in 2013, The Chainsmokers have consistently delivered viral sensations while their albums have dominated the Billboard charts.  For 2025, The Chainsmokers continue to celebrate their progressive house roots with a return to the acclaimed remixes they are known for-released for the fans, and only through SoundCloud.

Tickets for The Chainsmokers are now on sale via Ticketmaster.

Mark your calendars for the 2025 Illinois State Fair, August 7th through August 17th in Springfield.
