The Dreamville Festival is returning to Raleigh.
- Cole, a rapper and record producer who grew up in Fayetteville and co-founder of Dreamville, the entertainment brand and record label, announced the fifth annual showcase will be held on April 5-6, 2025. Ticket presales will begin on Dec. 11 at 9 a.m. with two-day general admission, general admission-plus, and VIP packages. Those tickets will be the least expensive to the general public with prices increasing as the event date approaches. If any presale tickets remain, a general ticket sale will follow.
A portion of proceeds will go to a pair of charities, Dreamville Foundation and Dix Park Conservancy.
Last year’s festival drew 100,000 people from all 50 states, and more than 20 countries to Dorothea Dix Park for a celebration of music, culture, and community. Organizers say the showcase generates an annual economic impact of more than $145 million for the greater Wake County area through patronage of local vendors, food trucks, artisans, and muralists across the festival grounds.
In addition to music, the festival will include art installations; Dreamville Foundation’s Nonprofit Row, which highlights local community organizations; the Dreamville Ferris Wheel, which overlooks Raleigh’s skyline and the festival grounds.
