Description
For 23 years, the N2N (Neighborhood to Neighborhood) Festival has unified thousands of families from the Southeastern region on Pennsylvania. The day-long event has featured live performances from Grammy-winning recording artist, such as Common, Robin Thicke, Musiq Soulchild, and Mos Def. Last year, the Festival celebrated the music legacy of Prince with a Tribute to the artist featuring headliners Sheila E, Morris Day, and Questlove of the legendary Roots Crew. In addition to live performances, the Festival also provides free health & wellness resources; food and merchandise vendors; community resource tents for families and senior citizens; and a kid's zone dedicated to our youth.
This year, the Festival is presenting a Tribute to the Queen of Soul, Ms. Aretha Franklin with several headliners throughout the day, beginning at 1 PM. They are national recording artists - Kathy Sledge, Jean Carne, Kelly Price, Kindred the Family Soul, Keke Wyatt, and Monica. We will also have performances by local artists as well as specials guests such as Wendell Holland, II, winner of this year's Survivor and hosts Comedian, Skeet and WDAS host, Patty Jackson.
The event's admission is completely free. RSVP here, to receive sneak-peek news on this year's headliners, as well as exclusive updates for the upcoming year.
