A rising star with a big TikTok following is coming to the Great New York State Fair.

Lizzy McAlpine will perform at the NYS Fair’s Chevy Park stage on Friday, Sept. 2 at 2 p.m. The concert is free with admission to the fair.

McAlpine, 22, has more than 434,000 followers and 9.8 million likes on TikTok thanks to her covers of The 1975 and original indie-folk songs that went viral during the Covid pandemic. She released her debut album, “Give Me a Minute,” in August 2020 and her sophomore release, the breakup record “five seconds flat,” debuted in April; songs like “Pancakes for Dinner,” “Apple Pie,” “Hate to Be Lame” (feat. Finneas), “Means Something” and “To the Mountains” have been streamed more than 100 million times combined on Spotify.

All concerts in the Chevrolet Music Series are free with New York State Fair admission.

More than 30 concerts have been announced to date for the 2022 New York State Fair, which begins in three weeks. Chevy Park and Chevy Court are expected to feature two shows daily.
