The Great New York State Fair has been known for bringing some really amazing acts to the stage for live music. This year is no exception, with plenty of great artists and bands from different genres happening on two stages: Chevy Park and Chevy Court.

It was announced that another act has been announced to the schedule for the 2022 season, and if you grew up in the 80s, you're gonna love it.

Fair organizers say 80s pop band Culture Club alongside its lead singer Boy George are returning to the Great New York State Fair on Tuesday, August 30. The group will be performing at the Chevy Park Stage at 8PM.
