The free event in San Antonio will also feature a performance by Ravyn Lanae
Add good music to your March Madness brackets! Rolling Stone can exclusively reveal that Pitbull and Doechii will lead the AT&T Block Party at the March Madness Music Festival in San Antonio, scheduled for April 4.
“Music is the universal language that brings culture and people together,” Pitbull tells Rolling Stone. “It’s exciting to headline the AT&T Block Party at March Madness Music Festival in San Antonio, a city rich with vibrant culture. It’s going to be an unforgettable night.”
Doechii and Ravyn Lanae will also perform at the free show, which takes place in Tower Park at Hemisfair. The concert is also set to be livestreamed on the NCAA’s website. “I’m so excited to kick off this year’s Men’s Final Four at the AT&T Block Party,” Lanae says. “It’s going to be a night to remember and I can’t wait to celebrate with y’all.”
The Doechii appearance will be a one-off U.S. performance for the Grammy-winning rapper, before a tour of Europe later this summer. Pitbull, for his part, is hosting a residency at Las Vegas’ Fontainebleau.
The AT&T Block Party is part of a three-day free music festival with each night hosted by a different sponsor. NCAA will also be hosting numerous fan-focused events in San Antonio that weekend, including a Tip-Off Tailgate, a one-mile dribble course, and a pep rally at San Antonio’s River Walk.
Last year, AT&T’s Block Party in Phoenix featured performances by Zedd, Renée Rapp, and Remi Wolf. The previous year saw a performance by Megan Thee Stallion.
