Nate Smith
Friday, September 1 • 7:30 PM
Internet Pre-Sale: 10am, July 10 thru 10pm 13th
On Sale:10am, July 14
Featuring a mix of gritty backwoods soul, rock ‘n’ roll swagger and velvet-thunder vocals, Nate Smith’s personal journey inspired him to be a beacon of country-music hope. Learning guitar at 13, Garth Brooks, Elvis Presley and Bob Seger were among those informing his powerful, fire-from-within vocals, while Michael Jackson made him crave the spotlight and Nirvana gave his sound a jagged edge. He’s made a huge splash with songs such as his Platinum-certified multi-week No. 1 hit “Whiskey On You,” which was lauded as the “breakup song of the summer” by Country Now. The CMT Awards and ACM Awards nominee is currently on tour with Thomas Rhett and will hit the road with Cole Swindell this fall. Nate Smith Website

Notice to Secondary Ticket Buyers
As the summer event season approaches, The Evergreen State Fairgrounds reminds our customers of the importance of purchasing event tickets from authorized sources:
-
If you purchase tickets from secondary ticket vendors (often called “resellers”), you may pay substantially more than if you had purchased directly from the Fair or the Fair’s authorized ticketing source.
-
The Fair does not guarantee tickets purchased from unauthorized ticket resellers. This means that if a ticket is counterfeit or has been resold multiple times, you may end up with a duplicated ticket barcode that has already been validated, thus invalidating the ticket for you.
-
The Fair does not honor, replace or refund invalid tickets. Your confirmation receipt is a valuable tool, so retain your electronic and in-person purchase receipts until the event has taken place.
