901 Loc Fest
About this Event
Welcome to 901 Loc Fest 2026 👑🏙️🔥
Where Culture Meets the Runway. Where the 901 Celebrates Its Crown.
Memphis, it is time to pull up and stand proud. On Sunday, August 16th, we are turning Focuz Lounge into a living, breathing sanctuary of Black artistry, luxury, and heritage.
901 Loc Fest isn’t just an event—it’s a movement. It is a dedicated space built to honor the raw beauty, history, and intricate artistry of the loc and natural hair community right here in the heart of the city. For generations, our hair has been our history, our resistance, and our highest form of self-expression. This summer, we are putting that heritage on full display, blending high-fashion street-luxe aesthetics with the deep roots of our community.
✨ What to Expect at the Festival:
- The Main Stage Runway Showcase: Prepare to be mesmerized by a high-fashion, couture runway show featuring breathtaking, avant-garde loc artistry and street-luxe designs, brought to life by Memphis's finest models, locticians, and creators.
- The Holistic Market & Live Vendor Curations: Immerse yourself in a curated marketplace dedicated to wellness, style, and self-care. From traditional, custom-measured waist beads to premium natural hair products and local art, come support the brilliant entrepreneurs moving our city forward.
- The Soundtrack of the Culture: Feel the rhythm of the city. With a live DJ spinning everything from timeless soulful classics to the heavy Memphis bass that moves our spirits, the energy on our indoor/outdoor patio will be unmatched.
- Luxury VIP Experiences: Whether you are catching the open-air vibes in a private outdoor patio cabana or sitting center-stage in a plush indoor VIP booth, we are elevating how our community celebrates.
✊🏽 A Celebration of Pride, Culture, and Community
This is for the visionaries, the trendsetters, the locticians pulling magic out of every strand, and every single person walking in the power of their natural crown. We are creating a space of pure elevation, deep connection, and unapologetic pride.
Whether you’ve been locked in for a decade, are just starting your natural hair journey, or simply want to immerse yourself in beautiful Black culture, music, and fashion—your presence is required.
