J. Cole has officially unveiled the star-studded lineup for the 2025 Dreamville Festival, marking its fifth and final edition.
In a recent Instagram post, the 40-year-old award winner announced the 23-man list featuring Tems, Lil Wayne, 21 Savage, and Birdman.
The fifth and final edition of the festival will take place on April 5 and 6 at Dorothea Dix Park in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Lil Wayne will headline the opening day, sharing the stage with Hot Boys and Big Tymers. 21 Savage, Partynextdoor, Ludacris, Ari Lennox, and Chief Keef will also perform on the first day.
Keyshia Cole will celebrate the 20th anniversary of her debut album ‘The Way It Is’ with a special performance.
J. Cole will close the festival with a headline performance on the second day, joined by Tems, Erykah Badu, GloRilla, J.I.D, Coco Jones, BigXThaPlug, Earthgang, Anycia, and Wale.
The festival has become a cultural hub, bringing together fans for a celebration of music, community, and shared experiences.
However, this year’s edition will be the final concert. In a statement shared in December, the festival organisers wrote:
From the moment the idea of a festival took shape, we couldn’t help but wonder: were we in over our heads? Would people come to our home in Raleigh? What would that even look like?
We took a leap of faith—breaking ground, making announcements, and even navigating reschedules due to the elements and a world that seemed to be falling apart. Through every challenge and milestone, our community stood by us.
Watching people from all over the world and all walks of life gather here each year has been one of the most fulfilling chapters of our journey. Whether it’s the day-one fans or the newcomers, each reunion has been unforgettable.
As we approach our 5th and final year, we want to invite our alumni and new pledges to come together one last time—to break bread, share fellowship, and celebrate this thing of ours.
