Country Music Star Mark Wills to join Sara Evans at Adams County Fair

The Adams County Fair Board is proud to welcome Grand Ole Opry member Mark Wills to the 2025 Adams County Fair. He will be kicking off concert night, opening for Country Music Icon Sara Evans on Saturday, July 26th.
​
It was “19(90) Somethin’” when Mark Wills began releasing his first of 19 Billboard-charting singles across seven albums. His voice is behind some of the most enduring and recognizable Country Music hits of the last 25 years. Some of those iconic titles include: “Wish You Were Here,” “Jacob’s Ladder” and “I Do (Cherish You).” Wills’ early chart success earned him an Academy of Country Music Award for Top New Male Vocalist in 1998. One of his biggest hits to date is the RIAA Gold-certified “19 Somethin’” – a six-week No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. 
​
“When some fair board members and I heard Mark Wills on stage last year we knew we had to get him to the Adams County Fair,” said Melissa Shriver-Hackamack, a Director with the Adams County Fair Board. “Every song he performed was a chart-topper, and directly linked to our memories from not long ago. He has a deep list of hits, and has an energy that will definitely make this concert one we won’t soon forget. He will join Sara Evans on stage for our concert so we’ve got two legends coming to the Tri-States on one BIG concert night.”

Wills will make a stop at the Adams County Fair on July 26, touring on the road with his high-energy show full of hits that were the soundtrack to so many people’s lives. He also is passionate about the U.S. military, taking more than a dozen trips to entertain U.S. troops in Iraq, Kuwait, Afghanistan, Korea, and Italy. 

Entry into grandstand seating for the concert is free with adult admission to the fair that evening. To get closer to the stage, track tickets will also be sold beginning on Saturday, June 7.
The 2025 Adams County Fair runs from Wednesday, July 23 to Tuesday, July 29th at the fairgrounds located 15 minutes north of Quincy on Highway 336.
