J. Cole’s Dreamville Festival Canceled for 2020 Due to COVID-19
The 2020 Dreamville Festival, presented by Fayetteville-native, rapper J. Cole, has been canceled, the team announced late Friday night on social media.
“After much deliberation and careful monitoring of the current situation, we have decided to cancel Dreamville Festival 2020,” the statement said. “Although we originally hoped it would be possible to bring you the festival this August, ongoing uncertainty regarding this COVID-19 pandemic has made this timeline no longer possible.”
In just its second year, Dreamville Festival has already seen it’s share of bad luck. The first festival was scheduled for the fall of 2018, but was postponed because of Hurricane Florence. It was moved to April of 2019 and was a huge success on its rescheduled date, drawing some 40,000 people to Raleigh’s Dorothea Dix Park.
This year’s festival had been scheduled for April 4, but was moved to August 29 once the coronavirus situation started to develop. But now with large gatherings being unlikely for a while, the festival has been canceled.
