Rod Stewart Concert Live at Iowa State Fair | Des Moines – August 14th, 2026
If you're heading to Des Moines for the Rod Stewart concert, you might want to soak in a bit of Iowa’s biggest summer tradition too, the Iowa State Fair. It’s not just about the concerts, but the whole experience, think massive livestock shows, where beef cattle are judged with folks getting pretty passionate about their favorites, and the legendary bull riding competitions that get your adrenaline pumping. The fair’s museum is packed with cool historical memorabilia that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Oh, and the Cattlemen’s BBQ is a must-try, smoky, tender grilled meats prepared by local cooks who take pride in their craft. Be prepared for the crowds, especially during popular events, since tiered seating and general areas fill up fast. If you’re bringing the kids along, don’t forget snacks and drinks for the road because, trust me, waiting in lines and walking around can work up an appetite. From downtown Des Moines, just follow East 14th Street out to the fairgrounds, and you’ll be set for a full day of fun and music. And hey, if you’re catching Rod Stewart in Des Moines, why not make a weekend of it and experience a true Iowa summer?
