The festival was expected to take place this weekend but unfortunately, J. Cole has revealed that it's been canceled.
J. Cole revealed that his inaugural Dreamville Festival won't go on as planned this weekend. Due to warnings of Hurricane Florence, Cole and the Dreamville team decided to pull the plug on the vent.
"Mannn. Due to this Hurricane heading to NC, we have to cancel Dreamville Festival. We’re working to get another date, but right now safety is most important. I appreciate everybody that was headed to rock with us. 30,000 + were expected," Cole wrote on Twitter.
The official Dreamville Twitter account also shared a statement about the festival's cancellation.
"Our team has been working tirelessly with officials from the City Of Raleigh, along with our State and Federal Partners, among others, to monitor the potential negative impact of Hurricane Florence." It read.
Although Cole and his team are working on solidifying another date for the tour, all ticket holders will be refunded 100% the costs of their tickets.
