The Festival

The Roots — the Philly natives also known as the Legendary Roots Crew — have gathered a diverse lineup of talent for this third annual music festival, including: Vampire Weekend, Mayer Hawthorne, The Very Best, Clipse, Nneka, Jay Electronica, Tune-Yards, Das Racist and more — including a performance by Wu-Tang members Raekwon, Method Man and Ghostface.

Of course, The Roots couldn´t just throw a music festival with their favorite acts and not grace the stage. The hometown heroes will be performing two sets of their unique, high-energy live sound.

Live music will be playing from two stages during this all-day event.
