Rebecca Clark, the Illinois State Fair Manager, expressed enthusiasm about the announcement: "We are so excited to start announcing our 2023 Illinois State Fair Grandstand lineup. To kick it all off with Maren Morris who brings hit after hit to our Illinois Lottery Grandstand Stage is a dream come true." She added that fans of Morris' collaborations and singles such as "The Middle," "My Church," "80's Mercedes," and "The Bones" would not want to miss this concert.

Tickets for Maren Morris' performance will be available at a later date. Prices range from $50 to $123 depending on seating tiers, with an additional upgrade option available for all paid concerts.
