Mark your calendars, hip-hop fans! The highly anticipated Young World Festival is making its grand return to Brooklyn’s Herbert Von King Park this summer, and it’s set to be an unforgettable experience. Scheduled for July 11 from 4:30 PM to 9 PM Eastern, this free, all-ages event will feature the charismatic Max B and festival founder MIKE as the headlining acts. This festival is part of New York’s beloved SummerStage series, ensuring a vibrant atmosphere filled with music and community spirit.
The Young World Festival, which MIKE first launched in 2019, took a hiatus during the pandemic. Last year, its edition—referred to as Young World V—was abruptly canceled, leaving fans eager for a comeback. This year’s festival promises to make up for lost time, with MIKE set to perform alongside his newly formed live band, the Band of the Century, which made waves during his recent Tiny Desk Concert.
Max B, fresh off his release from prison last November after serving 16 years, is also ready to deliver an electrifying performance. He has been busy on the live music circuit this year, and his latest mixtape, Public Domain 7: The Purge, features collaborations with heavyweights like A$AP Rocky and Kehlani, showcasing his undeniable talent and resilience.
As excitement builds for the Young World Festival, more artists are expected to be announced in the coming weeks, making this event a must-see for music lovers.
