Dreamville Fest 2025: J. Cole’s Setlist

The Dreamville Festival was born from J. Cole’s vision and has become one of the most anticipated music events in the country, bringing together some of the biggest names in music for a weekend of unforgettable performances.

It began in 2018, with Cole’s desire to create a festival that would not only showcase his own music but also celebrate the artistry of his label, Dreamville, and the wider hip-hop community.

The festival has grown year after year, drawing fans from across the globe to Raleigh, North Carolina, where it has become a staple in the music festival circuit.

However, as 2025’s festival came to a close, it marked the end of an era.

This year’s Dreamville Festival was the final installment of the event, as J. Cole announced that he would be stepping away from the festival after this performance.

The announcement carried a sense of bittersweet nostalgia, especially for those who had witnessed the evolution of both the festival and Cole’s career.

This final performance was nothing short of monumental. With a setlist that spanned his entire career, Cole delivered a musical journey for the audience. As a symbol of his growth, he paid tribute to his roots with a stage design that evoked memories of his early days, reflecting his deep ties to his beginnings.

The festival’s grand finale also included special guest appearances, making the event even more memorable.

For fans, this final Dreamville Festival was a farewell not just to the event, but to a chapter in J. Cole’s career.

It was a celebration of his artistic journey, the relationships he’s built, and the legacy he leaves behind.

The closing night of Dreamville Fest 2025 will undoubtedly be remembered as one of the most significant moments in the history of the festival, as it marked the end of an era, but also the beginning of whatever comes next for J. Cole and his Dreamville family.
