Buffalo, It's Time To Get Ready For Fat Joe Live

The list of Buffalo concerts, events, and shows heading to Western New York and Southern Ontario is continuing to grow, and if you haven't filled your summer to-do list, you have quite a few options this year.

So far this year, we've seen great shows from Drake, Joe & Tamia, and Stokley (as Rick James), with several more amazing shows on the agenda. Not only are the Queens of R&B coming, but we can expect to see Janet Jackson, Diana Ross, Flo Rida, Ice Cube, and more. There now is another show that you need to get ready for, as another hip-hop legend is on his way to Buffalo.

Fat Joe is scheduled to appear in Buffalo on August 3, 2024, at the inaugural Buffalo Herd Festival, and he's sure to take downtown Buffalo by storm.

Known for several platinum hits, Joseph Antonio Cartagena, better known by his stage name, Fat Joe, has been hip hop crowds for more than 30 years and is routinely ranked among the greatest rappers in the game today. Growing up in the Forest Houses public housing project in the South Bronx, Joe was influenced by other New York rappers like LL Cool J, and he was instrumental in bringing us other well-known rap artists like Big Pun, Remy Ma, Cuban Link, and more.

As a Billboard and ASCAP Music Award-winning rapper, Fat Joe has released ten studio albums and several gold and platinum hits, including Lean Back, What's Luv?, Get It Poppin', Make It Rain, and more.

Fat Joe is set to headline the first-ever Buffalo Herd Music Festival on Saturday, August 3, 2024. This all-ages, family-friendly event is set to happen at the Pucho Olivencia Center on Swan Street just outside of downtown Buffalo.

In addition to Fat Joe, the Buffalo Herd Festival will feature music by Buffalo's own Ballistic Man and other artists. There will also be tons of food, drinks, local vendors, and just about anything else that makes Buffalo great.

Tickets to the inaugural Buffalo Herd Festival featuring Fat Joe are on sale now on Eventbrite.
