Made in America Festival Canceled for Second Straight Year


Organizers of the Made in America Festival have announced that the Philadelphia fest will not take place for a second consecutive year.

“Since its inception, this groundbreaking festival has celebrated music & community – from creating a space for fans to connect, to uplifting local small businesses & shining a light on important causes. After a decade-long run on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, the 2023 Made in America Festival was canceled less than a month before it staged due to what organizers called “circumstances outside of production control.” Lizzo and SZA were set to headline the 2023 fest. The Roc Nation-produced, formerly Budweiser-sponsored festival had taken place in the City of Brotherly Love during Labor Day Weekends for over a decade, with Jay-Z, Beyonce, Pearl Jam, and Nine Inch Nails serving as headliners in its inaugural years; headliners in later years included Rihanna, Coldplay, Kendrick Lamar, Cardi B, and most recently, Bad Bunny and Tyler, the Creator.
