CALLING ALL KARAOKE SINGERS!

DU QUOIN, IL - Can you carry a tune? Do your friends know you for your karaoke skills? You could be the star of the new 2018 Du Quoin State Fair Karaoke Contest and open for a Grandstand act!

"This contest is free to enter and the bragging rights for the winner are priceless," said State Fair Manager Luke Sailer. The Karaoke Contest is set for Saturday, August 25 at 2:00 p.m. on the RollnUp Beer Stage. The contest winner will then get to open for Blackberry Smoke, performing on the Grandstand stage at the Du Quoin State Fair that night!
