He’s funny, he’s “fluffy,” and he’s coming to the York Fair.

Gabriel Iglesias, a stand-up comedian with specials on Netflix and Comedy Central, was announced as one of three acts who will perform at the York Fair in 2018.

“Gabriel’s stand-up comedy is a mixture of storytelling, parodies, characters and sound effects that bring his personal experiences to life,” a Facebook post announcing the show reads.

Iglesias will be performing as part of the “One Show Fits All” World Tour.

Old Dominion and MercyMe also to perform

Also announced for this year’s fair were Old Dominion (Sept. 14) and MercyMe (Sept. 11).

Old Dominion was formed in 2007 in Virginia featuring musicians who have writing credits on songs recorded by other artists like Luke Bryan, Cole Swindell, Kenny Chesney and Blake Shelton.

In 2015, their most well-known song “Break Up with Him,” reached the top of Billboard’s Country Airplay list.

MercyMe, a contemporary Christian music band, formed in 1994 in Greenville, Texas.

In March 2017, the group released its ninth studio album, “Lifer.”
