About The Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival

Entering its seventh year the Festival aims to highlight Hip-Hop’s legacy as an agent of artistic progression, community building and social change. BHF 2011 events will continue to reflect the full range of Hip-Hop culture, which spans music, film, academics, grassroots empowerment and more. We want to celebrate it all.

This year’s Festival will take place between July 11th- July 16th, 2011.

The week-long format features a showcase of panel discussions, exhibitions, parties, award show and of course Main Day performances, and the Family Day Block Party. All events are held throughout Brooklyn from Williamsburg to DUMBO.
