FOR THE CULTURE Day Party
FOR THE CULTURE — same block, new chapter, same BIG energy.
We’re back in Bed-Stuy at the same address, now reimagined as Hatch — a Black woman-owned space stepping into a new chapter. After a vibrant and unforteggable day party tribute to Bed-Vyne Brew last year, we’re continuing what was started — creating space for the culture, the music, and the peple!
Culture Unloc’d, LOCnificent, Traumatics, and Kulture Rehab come together again for a day party that feels familiar in all the right ways — just with a fresh backdrop.
Same block. New chapter. Same energy. Still for the culture.

R&B & Hip-Hop Classics, Afrobeats, Amapiano, Soca, Dancehall, Reggae
