The countdown is on for the in-person return of Birmingham Freedom Fest. The celebration of heritage in the heart of the city’s civil rights district comes back this Saturday, July 29 as part of Forging Justice, the city’s commemoration of 60 years since the 1963 Birmingham campaign for civil and human rights.

Saturday’s day-long Freedom Fest is divided into two parts. The first half of the day will include a morning of empowerment sessions or free speaker sessions and panels centered around business, history, and culture. The second half of the day is a ticketed music festival featuring artists from around the country, including Ruben Studdard, Jidenna, and Big K.R.I.T.
