“This is a great start for the box office sales,” said Colorado State Fair General Manager, Chris Wiseman. “The Colorado State Fair works hard every year to create an entertaining, diverse, and economical lineup and I’m happy to see people are looking forward to another great summer at the Fair.”

So far, 5,420 tickets have been sold for the 2007 Colorado State Fair entertainment lineup for a total of $112,571 in ticket sales. The acts with the most tickets sold so far are:
