Dreamville 2023, a music festival hosted by J. Cole, is once again taking over Raleigh this year and the lineup comes equipped with a gang of world-renowned hitmakers. Dreamville 2023 Festival is upon us!

Each year the Dreamville Festival grows in size and 2023 is surely living up to those words. J. Cole’s something-out-of-nothing imprint recently announced who’s taking the stage at the extravaganza and it’s a bit overwhelming.

Aside from Usher (who just sewed up his Las Vegas residency) stopping through to headline the first evening, J. Cole called upon Drake to assist him in closing out Dreamville 2023 — a linkage that is sure to leave fans with memories they’ll never be able to blank out.

In addition to the accustomed crew — Ari Lennox, Omen, Earthgang, Cozz, JID, Bas, and Lute — the rest of the roster is a dream manifested into reality for millennials, with a tidy sum of Gen Z preferred choices in the lineup also.

Yesteryear household names such as Sean Paul, Waka Flocka Flame, and Mario have been matched with coeval big dogs such as GloRilla, Burna Boy, Jessie Reyez, City Girls, Key Glock, Summer Walker, SiR, Lil Durk, and Baby Tate. Dreamville 2023 is showing love to upcoming stars as well like Arya Starr, Victony, Marqus Clae, Jordan Ward, and Reuben Vincent, for a genuinely all-around experience.

April 1 and 2 is when Dreamville Fest 2023 rolls into Raleigh, North Carolina (J. Cole’s hometown). Last year, Cole headlined the Dreamville Festival along with Lil Baby and featured performances from Ashanti and Ja Rule, DJ Drama (with T.I., Lil Wayne, and Jeezy) Wizkid, and Wale.
