After taking a hiatus in 2019, Drake’s OVOFestival is heading back to Toronto.
Drizzy teased on Tuesday (July 12) that he’d be making a “big announcement” come Wednesday (July 13) and made good on his promise, unveiling a star-studded lineup for the festival.
Starting on July 28, The All Canadian Northstars will kick things off, followed by a headlining performance from Chris Brown and Lil Baby on July 29, before Drake himself wraps things up with a historical Young Money reunion performance on August 1.
This means that the Drake, Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj will likely perform together for the first time in years.
“OCTOBER WORLD WEEKEND,” Drizzy wrote on Instagram. “I am currently working on bringing OVO FEST around the world in 2023 for the 10th anniversary but of course we wanted to turn the city up for the summer!!!! More event announcements to come. Tickets on sale Friday on @ticketmaster.”
Drake had previously announced that he had plans to bring OVOFest back this summer after the mogul made a surprise appearance during British rapper Dave’s performance at his Toronto venue History back in May. After running through “Knife Talk,” Drake showed the crowd some love before announcing the return of OVOFest.
“I love you with all of my heart. They let the city back open so I will see you at OVOFest soon,” he said at the time.
