Step into the Summer of SOULFEST, a BIPOC-centered klnky celebration of '90s R&B. Relive the golden era of slow jams, club bangers, and unapologetic sensuaIity; where the bass wrapped around you, the melodies hit deep, and every moment felt like a scene straight out of an R&B music video!
This is much more than a party! it’s a throwback to the vibes that shaped us. The era of silk sets, baggy jeans, leather fits, bandanas, and Timberlands. Of basement kickbacks, late-night radio dedications, and dance floors filled with nothing but feeling. As for the music? We’re taking it back with Aaliyah, TLC, Jodeci, Mary J. Blige, Boyz II Men, SWV, Ginuwine, and more! The sounds that defined a generation and set the tone for everything that came after.
