<a href="/profile/Drake" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Drake</a> is once again bringing the party atmosphere to the Lone Star State.
The rap icon announced via Instagram that his Houston Appreciation Weekend event will go down once again this year, with dates confirmed to be July 20th to the 23rd.
For those unfamiliar with the event, Drake began this multi-day gathering in 2014 and it has since grown into one of the biggest party weekends of the year. Concerts, poolside craziness and basketball games have been on tap in previous years and 2017&#8217;s HAW could be the biggest yet. No guests or specific events have been confirmed yet, but anticipation has already begun to build.
Check out the Instagram post and the mixtape from last year&#8217;s HAW below.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BWG36yXjRPq" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.instagram.com/p/BWG36yXjRPq</a>
