"Returning to the iconic Lena Horne Bandshell in Prospect Park from June 4 to September 19, this year's festival revolves around a theme of "Radical Joy" with a multi-generational, genre-defying roster that's also one of the most women-forward lineups in the festival's history."
"While the vast majority of the 15-show slate is free, the festival includes three ticketed benefit concerts that support BRIC's year-round work. These include Patti LaBelle on June 26, Royel Otis on July 18 and Liz Phair & Sleater-Kinney on September 19."
"Entry remains first-come, first-served, but BRIC strongly encourages fans to RSVP online to manage the expected crowds. Beyond the Bandshell, look out for a special pop-up at Brower Park on July 25."
"Highlights include an all-star tribute to Aaliyah celebrating the 35th anniversary of the Brooklyn-born icon's One in a Million, a Juneteenth celebration with Infinity Song, Americana Night featuring Yola, Dominican Night and the return of the Habibi Festival."
