Coke Hospitality Tent to Host After-Fair Concerts
Spencer, Iowa — As the sun sets on the 2025 Clay County Fair, the fun keeps going thanks to the Coke Hospitality Tent After Party, a series of free, live performances happening after select Grandstand shows. The Coke Hospitality Tent, sponsored by Atlantic Bottling Company, is a shaded gathering place located on the east side of the Grandstand, perfect for relaxing with your favorite fair food and an ice-cold Coca-Cola during the day. The After Party concerts are a bonus for evening fairgoers, featuring live music on September 6, 10, and 13.
Kicking off the After Party series on Saturday, September 6, is She’s With Us. This high-energy band blends blues, rock, funk, pop, and soul into an unforgettable live experience. Featuring powerhouse vocalist Iesha Toft and a dynamic group of musicians, this Iowa-based ensemble delivers a diverse range of music, from Elton John to Brandi Carlile, with their own unique flair. Get ready for bold vocals, genre-bending covers, and feel-good vibes following the Oliver Anthony Grandstand show.
On Wednesday, September 10, country fans are in for a treat as The Faster Horses take the stage before and after the Bulls & Broncs Grandstand Event. Known for their original songs, powerful vocals, and crowd-pleasing energy, this band has become a must-see on the county fair circuit. Whether it’s their anthem “Rednexico” or another boot-stomping original, The Faster Horses promise a high-energy show that’ll have fans singing along and staying late.
The final After Party of the Fair wraps up on Saturday, September 13, with a performance by Capital Sons, a Minneapolis-based rock band known for their soulful, guitar-driven sound and unforgettable hooks. Drawing inspiration from legends like Pearl Jam and The Rolling Stones, Capital Sons combines passion and skill in a performance featuring original songs that explore love, loss, and revolution, all delivered with a modern rock edge.
Each After Party performance will begin shortly after the conclusion of the evening’s Grandstand show. Fairgoers are encouraged to stick around, grab a refreshment, and enjoy even more top-tier entertainment under the lights at the Coke Hospitality Tent.
