Jay-Z‘s Made In America Festival is set to return in September.
First started back in 2012, the annual Philadelphia event was cancelled last year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Made In America 2021 will be held from September 4-5 at the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia. A line-up announcement for the Jay-Z-curated festival is set to be made soon.
Made in America 2021 will benefit the ACLU of Pennsylvania (its official charity partner) and the Arkansas-based REFORM Alliance, a criminal and prison justice reform organisation.
“We are thrilled to announce Made in America 2021 on the legendary Benjamin Franklin Parkway. This year will be like no other, as Made in America celebrates 10 years of music history making moments,” Jay-Z said in a statement.
