Buffalo is really the place to be this summer for great events, shows, and concerts. Make sure you check our Ultimate Summer Show Guide to set your to-do list because it's sure to be packed and the very first major Hip Hop and Rap festival is this weekend in Buffalo.

Buffalo's Conway The Machine, who is one-third of the Buffalo-based rap collaborative Griselda Records with Westside Gunn and Benny The Butcher, has created his own music festival in Buffalo and the initial show is happening Saturday, August 13, 2022, at Buffalo's Outer Harbor.

Drumwork Fest is featuring platinum-selling artists Jezzy, Wale, and Fabolous at the Lakeside Event Lawn.

Tickets to the show are still available and can be gotten online here on the Tixr website.
