There are just a pair of headliner slots yet to be announced for the 2025 Wisconsin State Fair, and on Tuesday, we found out one of the remaining shows for this year's fair.
The Wisconsin State Fair announced Tuesday that heavy metal veterans Queensryche will headline the Bank Five Nine Main Stage on Sunday, August 3rd.
Queensryche will be joined by Great White and Quiet Riot, rounding out a stacked night of classic rock. This marks the 30th Milwaukee appearance for Queensryche, who first played the city in 1983 at the Eagles Ballroom. Their most recent show was at Summerfest in 2023.
Great White will notch their 24th Milwaukee performance, while Quiet Riot returns for their 11th. Both bands have played the Wisconsin State Fair in the past two years.
Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. through the Wisconsin State Fair website.
