Earlier this year J.Cole and his record label Dreamville announced a music festival to take place in Raleigh NC. After month of silence and many wondering who will actually be performing, the silence has been broken about the upcoming music festival and announced the lineup via Twitter. 

The first ever Dreamville Festival will see performances by J. Cole himself, SZA, Big Sean, Young Thug, Nelly, Rich the Kid, Teyana Taylor, Davido, Bas, J.I.D, Rapsody, Cozz, Saba, Earthgang, Ari Lennox, Omen, YBN Cordae, Lute, and King Mez.

General Admission tickets are available for purchase now at www.DreamvilleFest.com for $109 for a limited time. For those looking for the ultimate festival experience, ticket buyers should opt for one of the VIP ticket packages. Packages this year include JV VIP ($229), Varsity VIP ($289), and MVP VIP ($449), with perks including premium viewing areas, expedited entry, dedicated bars and food vendors, private restroom facilities, festival merch, and more. Those interested in VIP are encouraged to act quickly and buy now as an extremely limited amount of VIP passes are still available.

Dreamville Festival offers an opportunity for J. Cole to give back to his home state, which has helped shape him as an artist, with a one-of-a-kind celebration of local culture, music food and art. The festival aims to provide a unique opportunity for locals and visitors alike to gather and enjoy a music celebration in one of Raleigh’s most beautiful and historic locations, Dorothea Dix Park - Raleigh’s largest city park with over 300 acres of public greenspace. Dreamville Festival’s ultimate goal is to not only have a positive and substantial economic and cultural impact on the city and surrounding region, but also to become one of the most anticipated annual events in the city - one that is a perfect complement to the existing event landscape and cultural fabric of the City of Raleigh.

The festival team would like to personally thank all of the 2018 partners and sponsors who are helping to make this year’s event possible, including Radio One’s WQOK (K97.5), Monster Energy, Lyft, Bedlam Vodka, Mother Rosé, Bud Light, and William Peace University.  Lyft is the official transportation partner of Dreamville Festival. “The fans are the most important part of Dreamville.  This is our first annual Dreamville Festival and we wanted to make sure that they have a great experience from the minute they head out to Dix park, to the minute they get back to home,” said President of Dreamville, Ibrahim Hamad. “Partnering with Lyft gets our fans everywhere they need to be for Dreamville Festival weekend and more.”

Dreamville Festival will benefit both the Dreamville Foundation and Dorothea Dix Park Conservancy. Founded in 2011 by J.Cole, The Dreamville Foundation is a non-profit organization 501(c)(3) created to “bridge the gap” between the worlds of opportunity and the urban youth of Fayetteville, North Carolina, through creating various programs and events that allow local youth to be “set up for success.” Additionally, the Dorothea Dix Park Conservancy is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that exists to support the city in its efforts, serve as its philanthropic partner, and help ensure the creation and long-term success of Dorothea Dix Park. For more information on each charity partner, please visit www.thedreamvillefoundation.org and dixpark.org, respectively.
