ROLLING LOUD RETURNS TO LOS ANGELES FOR IT'S 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

The highly anticipated Rolling Loud Hip Hop Festival is making its return to Los Angeles this year, bringing the hottest names in hip-hop to the heart of Southern California. The festival, known for its star-studded live performances, high-energy crowds, and unforgettable moments, has officially revealed its 2025 lineup, and it’s nothing short of spectacular. 2025 marks the dawn of a new era for Rolling Loud as it celebrates its ten year anniversary.  

Rolling Loud has been the premier destination for hip-hop fanatics since its inception, and 2025 is no exception. Headlining this year’s festival are three of the biggest names in music: A$ap Rocky, Playboi Carti, and Peso Pluma. Peso Pluma, in particular, is making history at Rolling Loud 2025 as the only artist on the lineup of headliners who performs primarily in Spanish. His presence is a testament to the growing influence of Latin music in the mainstream, offering fans a chance to experience something truly different this year. The Mexican star, known for his unique blend of Corridos Tumbados and Reggaeton, is bringing a fresh and exciting dimension to the festival. His inclusion speaks to the growing influence of Latin music in the global hip-hop scene and highlights the diverse, cross-cultural energy Rolling Loud is all about. In any case, these three music icons are set to bring their iconic sounds and larger-than-life stage presence to Los Angeles, leaving fans counting down the days until the ultimate showdown of musical talent. In addition to the headliners, this year's lineup features an incredible mix of rap royalty, rising stars, and boundary-pushing newcomers. Ski Mask the Slumpgod, Ken Carson, Quavo, Larry June, and Destroy Lonely are just some of the talented names in music that you’ll be listening to at the festival. Add in explosive performances from Dom Kennedy, Blxst, YG and Sexxy Red, and it’s clear: Rolling Loud LA 2025 is going to be one for the books. 

Beyond the music, Rolling Loud has a reputation for crafting a complete festival experience. Fans can expect top-tier production, cutting-edge visuals, and insane energy levels that keep the crowd buzzing all weekend long. From wild mosh pits to unforgettable surprise guest appearances, you never know what could happen when you step into a Rolling Loud crowd. The festival’s return to the Hollywood Park Grounds, adjacent to the iconic Sofi Stadium, adds another layer of excitement as its large outside venue will provide the perfect backdrop for the high-octane sets that are set to take over. The festival will see over 75 artists taking over one of the three stages all weekend long non stop. Not only that, but it will also bring back its iconic attractions of installations like its own tattoo parlor, a vip barbershop, multiple bars, and a myriad of art installations. For many, it’s not just about the music—it’s about the culture, the atmosphere, and the connections made within the community that this festival creates. Rolling Loud has become a community gathering point for fans, artists, and music enthusiasts to all come together to celebrate the power of hip-hop. 

This year will also mark the first time that Rolling Loud takes place over a two day span instead of its usual three. Co-founders and co-CEOs, Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif, are said to have made this decision as a way to make prices easier on the wallets of fans while still maintaining the same quality lineups and energy as before. Tickets will now be a fraction of the price with this new festival format - with GA passes starting at $179 and VIP passes at $449 for the whole weekend. General admission and VIP packages are on sale now, but with the event fast approaching, time is running out to be part of this epic weekend.

Rolling Loud has carved out a space in the live entertainment industry where hip-hop fans can come together, connect with their favorite artists, and be a part of history in the making. It’s not just a festival—it’s a cultural movement. As the Los Angeles edition gears up for 2025, this year promises to be another milestone for the festival that’s become synonymous with the best in live hip-hop music. Rolling Loud will take place in Los Angeles from March 15 through the 16th. If you are yet to attend a Rolling Loud festival, 2025 may just be the year to experience it firsthand. If you’re a returning fan, get ready for the next level of excitement, energy, and unforgettable memories. Written by Ana Oquendo
