Don't call it a comeback! The Rock The Bells Festival returns to Forest Hills Stadium, Queens, NY on August 5, 2023. Curated by Rock The Bells founder LL COOL J, this year's festival holds special significance as it marks the 50th anniversary of Hip-Hop.

In 2022, the sold-out festival was hosted by Rock The Bells radio personality and rap legend, Roxanne Shanté and Large Professor of Main Source, with music by DJ Mister Cee and DJ Scratch. The performance line-up was also stacked — it featured dynamic appearances from Busta Rhymes, Lil Kim, Fat Joe, Remy Ma, Rick Ross, Scarface, Ice Cube, Trina, and many more. As part of the experience, ticket holders also got a chance to check out the first-ever Hip-Hop food court experience, Trill Mealz Food Court, curated by Hip-Hop legend Bun B.

The 2023 Rock The Bells Festival promises to be just as immersive as last year and will kick off a week of live events, activations, and programming in honor of Hip-Hop's 50th anniversary.

Last year it was a sell-out crowd, so sign up at rockthebellsfestival.com for the opportunity to purchase pre-sale tickets for the 2023 festival. An announcement for the line-up is coming soon.
