Celebrating its 16th year of shaping sound and culture, ONE Musicfest 2025, presented by P&G, once again proved why it stands as the ultimate celebration of Atlanta’s musical legacy and global impact on Hip-Hop.

Launched in 2010 and founded by veteran event producer Jason “J” Carter, ONE Musicfest has evolved into a cultural institution that honors the city’s rhythm, hospitality, and creativity.

Taking place at Piedmont Park in Atlanta, Ga. on Saturday, Oct. 25 and Sunday, Oct. 26, this milestone year drew over 100,000 attendees, carrying on ONE Musicfest’s longstanding tradition of gathering the hottest artists in Atlanta and across the nation for a weekend filled with live performances and surprise guest appearances.

This year’s lineup overflowed with star power — Usher, Future, Mary J. Blige, Clipse, Ludacris, Jeezy, LL Cool J, Busta Rhymes, Jadakiss, The Roots, Leon Thomas, Trick Daddy, Jazmine Sullivan, Wale, Ari Lennox, Project Pat, Chief Keef, Jagged Edge, and more — commanding multiple stages and celebrating the city’s undeniable influence.

Beyond the music, festivalgoers explored the OMF Food Truck Village, an arts and crafts Merch Village, an interactive Visual Artist Village, and vibrant activations by various sponsors — all testaments to the festivals focus on positively contributing to Atlanta’s local economy and ever-evolving creative traditions.

VIBE compiled snapshots of the best and most memorable moments from ONE Musicfest 2025 that captured the essence of the annual celebration.
