The 2025 edition of J. Cole‘s annual Dreamville Festival will officially be its last.
The news was confirmed by the rapper’s Dreamville team in an Instagram post, sharing a video of drone shots illustrating the size of the Raleigh, North Carolina festival. “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?” the Instagram caption reads. “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.”
It continued, “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.”
Watch the video below. Dreamville Festival 2025 takes place, once last time, on April 5 and April 6.
