Made In America festival won’t take place for second straight year
Jay-Z’s Made In America has been one of the biggest hip-hop and R&B festivals in the United States, over the last 11 years. However, last year’s festival didn’t take place. At the time, they cited “severe circumstances outside of production control.”
Meanwhile, Made In America took to social media on Wednesday to confirm that they won’t have a festival, for a second straight year. However, exact reasons for the cancelation appeared to be very unclear in their statement.
“Made In America will not take place in 2024. Since its inception, this groundbreaking festival has celebrated music & community – from creating a space for fans to connect, to uplifting local small businesses & shining a light on important causes. It has strived for accessibility, eliminating barriers through affordable tickets and location. As purveyors of change, the Made In America executive production team is reimagining a live music experience that affirms our love and dedication to music and the work we do. We promise an exciting return to the festival.”
Made In America’a last festival was held back in the summer of 2022. At the time, Tyler, The Creator, Bad Bunny, Burna Boy, Pusha T, and more performed. 2023’s lineup was supposed to feature SZA, Lizzo, Tems, Latto, Coi Leray, Doechii, Flau’Jae Johnson, and much more..
