The Rejects Break Idaho Fair Record, Other Acts Not Even Close

Corn dogs, elephant ears, and Idaho Ice Cream Potatoes.

It's been a week since the Western Idaho Fair was going on here in the Treasure Valley and we must say--it was a memorable one. Of course, every year, the fair is a place for friends and family to gather for 'end of summer' fun.

The rides are great, the food is amazing, the animal shows are 'so Idaho' but the concerts, more than anything else, guarantee an AMAZING time. This year, 2025, was no exception.

Take a look at how Boise felt about the bands that rolled through! 

Did you or any of your friends go to see The All-American Rejects? 

The show was highly anticipated from the moment that it was announced--MONTHS before the fair even began. The band was in the middle of their viral run, throwing backyard concerts and parties along their tour. Of course, the nostalgia of their hit music from the 2000's was not lost on the crowd, either.

Fans, by the thousands, piled in for that concert and the Western Idaho Fair saw great success for booking the pop-punk group when they did.

Fans were also able to meet the band at downtown Boise's beloved Record Exchange--there, the band pulled up and signed and endless number of vinyl records while talking to fans (and even shopping at the store, later on).

We're already counting down the days until the next Western Idaho Fair and hope to see you there next year, corn dog and all!
