About this Event

BLK Girl Fest is an intentional celebration of Black women, our creativity, our healing, our brilliance and our community. Rooted in empowerment and connection, this festival was created as a space where Black women can show up fully, freely and unapologetically. This is more than an event. It’s an experience.

BLK Girl Fest exists to amplify Black voices and lived experiences. Support and spotlight Black-owned businesses. Create access to culturally affirming wellness experiences. Foster meaningful dialogue through intentional panel conversations. Build authentic community rooted in joy, healing and collective growth

We believe in a space where rest is normalized, creativity is celebrated, and economic empowerment is intentional.

You should attend BLK Girl Fest if you’re ready to connect with like-minded women in a powerful, uplifting environment. Support and shop Black-owned businesses. Experience wellness activations like yoga, Reiki and sound healing. Be inspired by performers, speakers and creatives. Move your body, laugh, dance and celebrate yourself.

This festival is designed for the woman who wants to be in community without shrinking, who wants joy without apology and who understands that healing and celebration can coexist.

BLK Girl Fest is where culture meets care.

Where creativity meets connection.

Where you get to be Unapologetically Her.
