The Biggest Stage in the Mat-Su

The Alaska State Fair in Palmer isn’t just about giant vegetables and carnival rides — it’s the premier destination for live music in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley. Every summer, the Borealis Theatre comes alive with a world-class lineup of national headliners, legendary rock bands, country stars, and chart-topping artists.
