The Roots with Mary J. Blige, Kamasi Washington and more are set for the 2022 Roots Picnic lineup. The festival presented by Live Nation Urban and curated by The Roots will take place on Saturday, June 4 and Sunday, June 5 at the Mann at Fairmount Park in Philadelphia.
Fresh off her Super Bowl Halftime performance, Mary J. Blige will perform with The Roots for the first time onstage at the 2022 Roots Picnic. Along with Kamasi Washington, the bill also features Summer Walker, Wizkid, Kirk Franklin, Jazmine Sullivan, J Period Live Mixtape featuring Black Thought, Rick Ross, G Herbo, Mickey Guyton, Muni Long and more.
“After a long two years, we are excited to announce the return of The Roots Picnic to Philly with two days of music and culture at the Mann at Fairmount Park,” President of Live Nation Urban, The Roots manager and co-founder of the event Shawn Gee said. “This year, Black Thought, Questlove and I attempted to curate a lineup that broke through the genre barriers that often separate us in black culture. To be able to book Mickey Guyton, Kirk Franklin, G Herbo, Wizkid, Wallo & Gillie, and Mary J Blige on the same lineup was a dream come true.”
Tickets go on sale Friday, February 18 at 10 a.m. ET.
