Kickoff Concert to Launch 2026 Meat In Weekend

For the first time ever, the Sterling Livestock Meat In event is kicking off its celebration with a live concert — and it’s bringing serious talent to the Logan County Fairgrounds. Jordan Suter will open the night, followed by Colorado’s own Clare Dunn, performing live on Friday, March 20 inside the Exhibit Building.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the concert begins at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $60, seating is first come, first serve, and all proceeds support the same local causes funded through the Meat In auction — including assistance for a single mother from Sterling battling breast cancer, scholarships, school groups, and community organizations.

Tickets are available now at Sterling Livestock Commission, 20197 Riverside Drive, Sterling, Colorado or contact at 970-522-1950.

This concert marks a new chapter for the Meat In tradition, adding a high‑energy kickoff to a weekend that celebrates agriculture, community, and the people who keep both alive.
