Big Fresno Fair announces latest concert line-up

FRESNO, Calif. (KSEE/KGPE) – The Big Fresno Fair organizers announced the lineup for both Sundays of the 2024 fair on Tuesday.

Organizers say that El Flaco vs El Mimoso will be on Oct. 6 and then Calibre 50 with Banda Carnaval will be on Oct. 13, as part of the Table Mountain Concert Series in the Paul Paul Theater.

The show will join a line-up that already consists of Walker Hayes, Sugar Ray, The Righteous Brothers, G-Eazy, and Dwight Yoakam.

Organizers say “El Flaco,” aka Luis Angel, is a Banda singer who was the former frontman for Banda Los Recoditos. “El Mimoso,” Luis Antonio López Flores, was once a vocalist for Don Cruz Lizárraga’s widely-adored Banda El Recodo. The now 44-year-old sings his own songs and renditions of the classics of banda and any of the various interrelated Mexican musical styles.

Calibre 50 is an award-winning Norte?o quartet from Mazatlan, Sinaloa founded in 2010, according to organizers.

Organizers say Banda Carnaval is a regional Mexican band from Mazatlán, Sinaloa, whose teen-oriented banda style is heavy on cumbias and “románticas”.

Tickets for these concerts will go on sale first to Big Fair Fan Club members, the fair’s free email newsletter, as part of an online-only pre-sale starting on Thursday at 10 a.m. and going until Sunday, June 23 at 11:59 p.m.

Organizers say during this time, any BFF Club member who purchases a Fair concert ticket can also purchase a Fair admission ticket for 50% off; discounted admission and concert tickets must be purchased in the same transaction. Tickets will then go on sale to the general public (online only) beginning Monday, June 24 at 10 a.m.
