Homemakers Furniture Grandstand Concert Series - Kum & Go Stage

With only 112 days until the 2023 Iowa State Fair, the last two acts are multi-talented rapper, actor and recording executive Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges with special guest Sean Kingston on Friday, August 18, and country music legend and superpower Jason Aldean with special guest Corey Kent on the final night, Sunday, August 20.

The career of the multi-talented Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges can best be described as remarkable. As a recording artist, he has sold more than 15 million albums domestically, including blockbuster singles such as "Stand Up," "Get Back," "Southern Hospitality," "Number One Spot," "Money Maker" and "My Chick Bad." With an unrivaled match of lyrical acumen, wit and imagery, Bridges has solidified himself as one of music's premier entertainers.

Multi-Platinum entertainer Jason Aldean has learned a thing or two about the music he has made over the past 16 years. Aldean has bolstered 27 No. One hits, 15 billion streams and has sold more than 20 million albums. Notably, seven of Aldean's previous studio albums have been certified Platinum or more and he has the most Top 10 songs on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart, more than any other artist, since making his chart debut in 2005.
