Lil Wayne, Erykah Badu, Tems
J. Cole has unveiled the lineup for his 2025 Dreamville Festival. On Monday, the rapper unveiled that he’ll headline the annual North Carolina fest alongside Lil Wayne, 21 Savage, J. Cole, Erykah Badu, and Tems. The two-day fest is scheduled for April 5 and 6 at Raleigh’s Dorothea Dix Park.
Lil Wayne leads the Saturday festival as he hits the stage with Hot Boys (Juvenile, Turk, and B.G.) and Big Tymers (Mannie Fresh and Birdman) during his set. 21 Savage, Partynextdoor, Ludacris, Ari Lennox, and Chief Keef will also perform. Keyshia Cole will hit the stage to celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Way It Is.
Sunday’s event, which will close with J Cole, will also see Erykah Badu, Tems, GloRilla, J.i.D, and Coco Jones perform. Sunday will also see BigXThaPlug, Earthgang, Anycia, and Wale.
“Our team looks forward to welcoming fans from around the world to Dreamville Festival this spring for our fifth-anniversary celebration,” said Dreamville President Adam Roy in a press release. “The first weekend in April has grown to become one of our team’s favorite times of the year as an annual NC reunion.”
General admission tickets for the two-day, two-stage festival cost $300, and GA+ tickets cost $565. Fans can also get JV VIP tickets, which include access to VIP viewing areas and restrooms, for $915 or Varsity VIP tickets, which come with exclusive merchandise, for $1,015. MVP VIP—which includes an “exclusive super VIP bar and lounge area” along with special restroom access—costs $2,015.
The festival will feature pop-ups with art installations, local food options, a Ferris wheel, and booths at Dreamville Foundation’s Nonprofit Row. Back in November, the fest announced that it would be the last time Dreamville Fest is hosted.
“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,” the festival wrote on Instagram back in December.
Last year, SZA, Nicki Minaj, 50 Cent, ScHoolboy Q, and Rae Sremmurd performed.
