Tems, the Nigerian sensation is set to take center stage at the highly anticipated Dreamville Festival! Scheduled for April 5 and 6 at Dorothea Dix Park in Raleigh, North Carolina, the festival promises an unforgettable experience with a star-studded lineup. Tems will headline the festival’s final edition alongside J. Cole, Lil Wayne, 21 Savage, and Erykah Badu.
The festival, curated by J. Cole and his Dreamville team, has become a cultural staple since its debut, uniting fans through music and community. But after five phenomenal years, the 2025 edition will mark the festival’s grand finale. In a heartfelt statement shared in December, the organizers reflected on their journey, expressing gratitude for the memories created and the connections made. “From the very beginning, the idea behind the fest was creating a place where our fans, the Dreamville community, could spend time together, a place where they could see themselves reflected,” the statement read. “Let’s run it back one more time in April!”
For this final edition, fans can expect an eclectic mix of artists. On Saturday, Lil Wayne will take center stage, joined by the legendary Hot Boys (Juvenile, Turk, and B.G.) and Big Tymers (Mannie Fresh and Birdman), along with other notable acts like 21 Savage, Partynextdoor, Ludacris, Ari Lennox, and Chief Keef. Keyshia Cole will also perform in celebration of the 20th anniversary of her debut album The Way It Is.
Sunday’s lineup promises to be just as exciting, with J. Cole closing out the festival. The day will feature performances from Tems, Erykah Badu, GloRilla, J.I.D, and Coco Jones, with additional acts like BigXThaPlug, Earthgang, Anycia, and Wale rounding out the star-studded schedule.
Dreamville Festival has been a showcase of both homegrown and international talent, with artists like Burna Boy, Rema, and Davido gracing the stage in past editions.
