Shawn Gee's Live Nation Urban capped off Black Music Month last week with three major festivals going on sale: H.E.R.'s Lights On fest, Washington, D.C.'s Broccoli City and Atlanta's ONE Musicfest.
H.E.R.'s Bay Area festival, which expanded from one day to a full weekend at the Concord Pavilion for its 2021 iteration, sold out within 24 hours. Broccoli City and ONE Musicfest opened with strong sales as well.
The ninth edition of Broccoli City will feature headliners Lil Baby, Snoh Aalegra and Moneybagg Yo; ONE Musicfest's weekend includes H.E.R., Lil Wayne and the Isley Brothers; and Lights On has sets from Erykah Badu, Bryson Tiller, Ari Lennox and H.E.R., plus friends, on the books.
