Evidently, Jeff Dunham (or one of his dummies) couldn't get enough of the cream puffs.

The comedian and ventriloquist will headline the Wisconsin State Fair in 2023 — after also headlining the fair's main stage in 2022.

His show will be at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 5, and will be a new tour from last year.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Jan. 27 at wistatefair.com, and cost between $52 and $62. They include fair general admission Aug. 5.

Dunham was the third State Fair headliner revealed this week. Country band Alabama kicks things off Aug. 3, with Christian pop group For King & Country coming Aug. 7. Tickets for those shows also go on sale at 10 a.m. Jan. 27.

The fair will run from Aug. 3 to 13.
