A massive all-ages musical celebration, the Made in America music festival takes over the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia each Labor Day weekend.
With over a dozen top performers, the two-day music fest — curated by Jay-Z — is a can’t-miss event and one of the biggest music fests in the five-county region each year.
The majestic Benjamin Franklin Parkway is transformed for Made in America’s sprawling annual outdoor festival, which features performances by the best of the best in hip-hop, alternative music, EDM and R&B.

In addition to music, past festivals have included amusement rides, interactive activities and plenty of food and drink, including a variety of appetizing food choices — including traditional festival fare and gourmet food trucks — as well as free filtered water service onsite at many stations throughout the festival.
Jay-Z hand-picks a lineup of both established and up-and-coming musicians to perform — and sometimes, you can even find the superstar singing along in the crowd.
Performers in previous years have included Cardi B, Travis Scott, Nicki Minaj, Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna, Coldplay, Beyoncé, The Weeknd, The National, J.Cole and, of course, Jay-Z.
Made in America is a ticketed event.
