Broccoli City has announced the lineup for Broccoli City Festival 2020, which will take place 5/9 in Washington D.C. The eighth annual edition of the festival, in partnership with Live Nation Urban, will return to RFK Campus and will feature DaBaby, Roddy Ricch, Megan Thee Stallion, Burna Boy, Ari Lennox, Doja Cat, Lucky Daye, IDK, and Soulection.
"We take great pride in our ability to create safe and authentic spaces for the black community to gather and celebrate the beauty of our culture," said Brandon McEachern and Marcus Allen, Founders of Broccoli City Festival. "At a time like this, it's imperative for us to protect these spaces and encourage one another to make their voices heard, which is why our return to Washington, D.C. is so important. Not only does this move symbolize a return to WHERE we started, it's also symbolic of our return to the root of WHY we started -- to educate, equip and mobilize millennials to build thriving urban communities that sustain future generations.”
Beyond the music, festival attendees will experience an expanded footprint, enhanced brand activations and more. New this year, Broccoli City has partnered with Crown Royal to provide fans with an optional Royal Experience Pass, which will provide access to special viewing areas, private bars and more.
“We are excited to welcome Broccoli City Festival back to the District of Columbia to celebrate our culture and our values at the newly redeveloped RFK Campus,” said Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser. “D.C. is the capital of creativity, and as it is every summer, we expect that creativity will be on full display at Broccoli City.”
Broccoli City will donate a portion of the proceeeds from each ticket sold to the Broccoli City Foundation and its partner organizations in the D.C. Metropolitan areas. For more information or to purchase tickets go here.
