San Diego County Fair reveals first four 2026 grandstand concerts, with tickets on sale Feb. 13

First acts set for June dates at the Corona Grandstand Stage

The San Diego County Fair has announced the first four performances in its 2026 Toyota Summer Concert Series at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, outlining a genre-spanning start to the summer schedule that includes electronic, rock, country and regional Mexican music. The shows are scheduled for the Corona Grandstand Stage during the fair’s early run in mid-June.

The fair is scheduled to operate from Wednesday, June 10, through Sunday, July 5, 2026, and will be closed Mondays and Tuesdays. Organizers have indicated that additional concert announcements are expected in the spring, with the next round set for March 10.

Concert dates and start times

• Koe Wetzel: Friday, June 12, 7:30 p.m.

• Los Tucanes de Tijuana: Sunday, June 14, 7:30 p.m.

• Marshmello: Friday, June 19, 7:30 p.m.

• Good Charlotte: Saturday, June 20, 7:30 p.m.

Ticket sales timeline and policies

Tickets for the four newly announced concerts are set to go on sale Friday, Feb. 13. A presale is scheduled to open Wednesday ahead of the general sale. The fair’s ticketing materials for grandstand events also note a household purchase limit and state that concert tickets include same-day fair admission.

What the lineup signals about the 2026 series

The initial announcement points to a strategy of programming widely different audiences on consecutive fair dates: Marshmello’s electronic performance targets dance-music fans, while Good Charlotte represents pop-punk and early-2000s alternative rock. Koe Wetzel adds a country-leaning night, and Los Tucanes de Tijuana brings a major regional Mexican act with cross-border appeal in the San Diego-Tijuana region.

More additions to the summer concert schedule are planned for release in March and April, with March 10 identified as the next announcement date.

Fair schedule and theme

Organizers have set the 2026 fair theme as “Once Upon a Fair,” and the event will run June 10 through July 5 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. The four concerts are positioned in the first half of the fair’s calendar, a period that typically draws heavy attendance as summer begins across the region.

The fair’s concert page lists these four grandstand shows as the only Toyota Summer Concert Series dates confirmed so far, underscoring that a broader lineup is still to come.
