Expanding from a Miami institution into a global behemoth in seven short years, Rolling Loud is not done growing. Today, the World’s Premier Rap Festival announces Rolling Loud Toronto, its first ever festival in Canada and its fourth festival in four different countries in 2022.
Making a new home in the most multiculturally diverse city in North America, the upcoming Rolling Loud Toronto recruits headliners Future, WizKid, and Dave to lead a bill filled with ultra-talented artists from across Canada and the globe.
Located in Ontario Place, a gorgeous space on the shores of Lake Ontario that overlooks the famous Toronto skyline, Rolling Loud Toronto makes its debut on September 9-11, 2022. Tickets for Rolling Loud Toronto go live at 12 p.m. EST on Friday, April 29 via FrontGateTickets.com.

For its first Canadian festival, Rolling Loud curated its most diverse and wide-ranging North American bill to date. Beyond the headliners, Rolling Loud Toronto brings American rap stars and Rolling Loud regulars like Lil Uzi Vert, Migos, Roddy Ricch, Trippie Redd, Lil Yachty, and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, alongside Canadian rap titans like NAV, Belly, and Pressa, UK top men including Skepta, Central Cee, and AJ Tracey, and afrobeats giants like Rema. Like all Rolling Loud festivals, the upcoming event prominently features some of the hottest rising names in rap, like Lil Tecca, BIA, Ski Mask The Slump God, and many more.
Rolling Loud Toronto continues a massive year for Rolling Loud, who warmed up for a loaded festival season with a standout showcase at SXSW, headlined by Don Toliver and showcasing some of rap’s hottest up-and-comers. Rolling Loud is hard at work in preparation for this summer’s Rolling Loud Miami 2022, boasting perhaps the most impressive group of headliners in Rolling Loud history: Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, and Future. With those superstars leading an array of A-listers and red hot risers, Rolling Loud Miami returns to Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, FL from July 22-24.
