CENTRAL POINT, Ore. (Mar. 10, 2026) — Organizers of the Jackson County Fair have announced two nationally recognized acts for the 2026 fair concert series, bringing a mix of country, hip-hop and dance music to the Bi-Mart Amphitheater this summer.
Country singer Chris Young will perform July 16 during the annual fair at The Expo, while hip-hop artist Sir Mix-A-Lot and Freedom Williams of C&C Music Factory are scheduled to take the stage July 17.
Fair officials said tickets for both concerts will go on sale March 17 through TheExpo.com.
Young, one of Billboard’s top country artists of the past decade, has recorded 14 No. 1 singles and accumulated more than 9 billion streams over his career. The multi-platinum artist is a member of the Grand Ole Opry and has received nominations from the Grammy Awards, Country Music Association Awards and Academy of Country Music Awards. His catalog includes dozens of RIAA-certified recordings and songs that blend traditional country with contemporary production.
The July 17 show will feature Sir Mix-A-Lot, a Grammy-winning rapper best known for the 1992 hit Baby Got Back, which became a cultural phenomenon following the release of its music video on MTV.
Joining him will be Freedom Williams, frontman and co-founder of C&C Music Factory. The group rose to international prominence in the early 1990s with a string of dance hits and has continued touring globally with high-energy performances.
Both concerts are part of the 2026 Jackson County Fair concert series, which runs alongside the six-day fair scheduled for July 15–19 at the Jackson County Fairgrounds, located at 21 Peninger Road in Central Point.
The annual fair features live entertainment, carnival rides, food vendors, agricultural exhibits and family-oriented attractions, drawing visitors from across Southern Oregon each summer.
