Tickets start at $77 and go up to $207. Party deck tickets are also available. You can take a look at the seating chart below.

I think Blake is the perfect choice for the Minnesota State Fair Grandstand because he has a perfect mix of fun drinking songs to ballads that everyone knows. Plus, even if you aren't a country fan, you may be a fan of The Voice, which he was on for years.
