Rolling Loud, a universal term used for a number of subjects, is now an official hip hop based event quite literally taking over the world. After just three short years, Rolling Loud has grown to a worldwide empire that many festivals in the industry are beginning to look up to today. So you might ask, what exactly is Rolling Loud?
Rolling Loud is completely curated and ran independently by a very small click of concert entertainment promoters. Rolling Loud is found and ran by Tariq Cherif (27) and Matt Zingler (29).
After continuously building their brand together and successfully putting on hip hop shows throughout Florida, five years later they revealed their plans for an all day musical experience featuring Schoolboy Q, Juicy J, A$AP Ferg, Action Bronson, Currensy, Travis Scott, + many more renowned hip hop artists.
Rolling Loud 2015 took place Saturday February 28th at Soho Studios in Miami, Florida. Since then, the event moved it's second annual festival to Mana Wynwood with two entire days of heavy hitting artists like Future, Young Thug, 2 Chainz, Ty Dolla Sign, Lil Yachty, Lil B, and seriously so much more.
After hard work day in and day out, Rolling Loud has made Miami it's overall home now featuring three full days of music, art, and tens of thousands of fans gathering together for their love of the hip hop movement. Rolling Loud's 2017 edition took place May 5th - 7th completely selling out the historical Bayfront Park with over 40,000 attendees. For an event not offering an insane variety of genres or camping opportunities, this is an ENORMOUS amount of people over an entire weekend of the absolute best artists in the game.
We had the pleasure of attending Rolling Loud 2017 and got the chance to experience legends such as Kendrick Lamar, Lil Wayne, Future, A$AP Rocky, Travis Scott, Young Thug, Lil Uzi Vert, Migos, 21 Savage, Post Malone, Gucci Mane, Mac Miller, and so many more it's hard to even wrap our heads around.
After immense success and putting over 10 million dollars into this year's event, Rolling Loud came through with their massive plans that will completely blow your minds. Dope Entertainment has officially made a worldwide expansion where their will be a total of SIX Rolling Loud Festivals taking place in San Francisco (Bay Area), Southern California, United Kingdom, China, Japan, and the ultimate grand finale celebration in Miami, Florida.
Okay now you're probably thinking, slow down a second. Slowing down is not an option for these dedicated hard working individuals. They have already released Rolling Loud (Bay Area) lineup information which will be taking place October 21st - 22nd at Shoreline Festival Grounds in northern California. Without any hesitation, tickets are already almost SOLD OUT where fans from around the U.S. plan to attend every possible Rolling Loud stop there is.

Now it's also time to keep a hard lookout for Southern California's rendition of Rolling Loud, which will be taking place December 16th - 17th at the NOS Event Center in beautiful San Bernardino, California. Lineup and ticket information will be released at the end of the month so get your wallets ready people. Every stop, is a new vibe. Tell your friends, everyone, and their mothers where to be the rest of 2017 because Rolling Loud will be knocking on your door shortly.
We're overwhelmed but absolutely ecstatic at what these guys are pulling off. Teamwork makes the dream work people and we haven't seen motivation like this in quite awhile. This is a complete new innovation of culture based events. To say the least, Rolling Loud is a leading example in the festival industry should be going after.
With recent features on top entertainment sites including Billboard, Revolt, and XXL, it goes without saying that Tariq and Matt are not stopping anytime soon. From the artists themselves, to sponsors, an amazing media team, and attendees alike, the entire hip hop movement has Rolling Loud's backs 100%.
We'd like to give a HUGE shout out and mad love for anyone and everyone directly or indirectly involved in making Rolling Loud such a success! THANK YOU!
