New Mexico State Fair adds seats for ‘high demand’ Becky G concert
The popularity of singer/actress Becky G prompted the New Mexico State Fair to add 800 seats ahead of her concert.
Due to “unprecedented demand,” state fair officials added floor seating to increase capacity for the show, which “has essentially sold out.”
“We didn’t want anyone to miss out on what promises to be an electrifying concert,” said General Manager Dan Mourning.
The floor tickets will only include admission to the Fair and the concert. They do not include admission to the Chevron PRCA Xtreme Bulls rodeo.
