The sibling pop trio’s concert on September 1 completes a busy year of performances at the stadium.

The Jonas Brothers, a pair of pop artists, have taken the last spot in the Minnesota State Fair’s grandstand concert series for 2023.

On September 1, the second Friday night of the fair, Nick, Joe, and Kevin Jonas will reunite at the Great Minnesota Get-Together (checks notes). At 10 a.m. on May 12, tickets go on sale through etix.com or by calling 800-514-3849. The range in price is $77–$207. No opening act has been announced.

The Jo Bros will make their fourth appearance in the Twin Cities since ending a six-year hiatus in 2019. This includes their final local performance at Mystic Lake Casino Amphitheater in 2021, which went on despite the location refusing to comply with the band’s request to enforce COVID-19 vaccine checks at all of its shows.

The group will be promoting a new album this time, aptly dubbed “The Album,” which drops the following week. Since its debut on Billboard’s adult contemporary charts last month, the album’s sweet second single, “Waffle House,” has climbed the charts, but it still has a long way to go before it matches the success of their multi-platinum 2019 comeback single, “Sucker,” or earlier hits like “Burnin’ Up” and “Tonight.”

The Black Keys’ grandstand performance on the fair’s opening day, August 24, was confirmed the day before the announcement of their concert on Tuesday, fitting in the program for all 12 days. The whole schedule of outdoor concerts in 2023 is as follows:
