The final weekend of the Illinois State Fair opens with today’s First Responder and Healthcare Heroes Day. Law enforcement, firefighters, EMTs and healthcare workers are admitted free by showing badges.
Country star Ella Langley performs tonight for a sold-out grandstand, Kobanova plays a free concert on the Grand Central Stage under the Reisch Pavilion and the Monsters of Destruction monster truck show is at the Multi-Purpose Arena.
The fair continues through Sunday.
