Blavity Inc. brought the soul of the culture to life with Blavity Fest 2025, a two-day celebration packed with inspiration, style, and unforgettable moments. DJ Ms. Eclectic, Host of Good Vibes with Ms. Eclectic witnessed why this festival is becoming a must-attend gathering for Black creatives, entrepreneurs, and tastemakers.
With the vibrant backdrop of Atlanta in perfect spring weather, the festival lived up to its theme: Where Culture and Energy Meet. Guests were greeted by a thriving crowd, bold fashion statements, and an atmosphere charged with ambition, purpose, and community.
Sunday, Food critic and viral sensation Keith Lee took the stage to share insights on balancing fame, fatherhood, and what success meant to him, while rising mogul Marsai Martin captivated the audience with wisdom beyond her years. “Start before you are ready,” resonating with a crowd moved by her reflections on boundaries, legacy, and the importance of rest. “Rest is just as important as work,” she reminded attendees — a powerful message in an age of hustle culture.
The energy hit another level when Kirk Franklin gave a stripped-down, soul-stirring performance with just a keyboard, a mic, and background singers— and a congregation of fans who sang every word with an epic mic toss! The rawness made it feel like a homecoming church service and a block party all in one. Who said a power outage can stop a show!
Adding to the musical magic, DJ Hillery Banks delivered an upbeat gospel set that turned the festival into a sanctified dance floor, making it one for the books.
Saturday, Atlanta’s own 2 Chainz hit the stage.

From inspiring panels to epic street-style moments, Blavity Fest 2025 was more than a weekend—it was a cultural reset. As the sun set on Sunday, one thing was clear: the culture is alive, and Blavity is at the center of its pulse.
Atlanta! Mark your calendars for next year! Blavity 2026 is happening May 23 - May 24, 2026! This is more than a festival. It’s a movement.
