Cardi B, Travis Scott, Kaytranada to perform at Jay-Z’s Made in America fest

NEW YORK — Cardi B and Travis Scott are heading to the City of Brotherly Love to headline Jay-Z’s annual Made in America festival.

Live Nation and Roc Nation announced Tuesday that the festival will return to Philadelphia’s Benjamin Franklin Parkway on Aug. 31-Sept. 1 for Labor Day weekend.

In addition to Montreal-base Kaytranada, other performers include Juice WRLD, James Blake, Kodak Black, Kaskade, Tierra Whack, Blueface, Anderson .Paak and The Free Nationals, Jorja Smith, Jacob Banks, Grace Carter and Pink Sweat$.

Tickets for general public went on sale Friday. Subscribers of Jay-Z’s streaming service, Tidal, will have access to purchase tickets through a presale on Tuesday.

Earnings from the festival will benefit the American Civil Liberties Union of Pennsylvania, and a portion of proceeds will support The REFORM Alliance.

Kaytranada has a new release, Dysfunctional, and is wrapping up the second weekend of Coachella music festival with a Sunday-night performance (opposite Ariana Grande). Later this summer, he will (once again) perform at Montreal’s Osheaga music festival.
