Only two weeks have passed since Dreamville Festival announced its 2024 dates, but it’s never too early to start planning. While the festival’s headliners haven’t been announced yet, the bulk of the lineup is pretty easy to predict, and fans of J. Cole and his labelmates like Ari Lennox, Bas, Earthgang, and JID are undoubtedly already looking forward to finding who’ll be joining them at next year’s show.
Of course, planning to attend means budgeting the trip ahead of time — which means knowing how much tickets cost. Presale tickets go on sale tomorrow (November 7) with the public sale beginning Friday (11/10) at 10 am, so it’s probably worth knowing what the impact on wallets could be.
How Much Are Dreamville Fest 2024 Tickets?
Judging from the prices of this year’s tickets, fans should expect to pay at least $249 for general admission tickets. Meanwhile, GA + packages this year started at $499, junior varsity VIP packages started at $749, varsity VIP packages started at $999, and most valuable player VIP packages started at $1,499. Unless there’s a drastic leap from last year, it’s probably fair to assume next year’s prices will be similar (we’ll update this post when we know for sure).
One thing’s for certain, though: It’s bound to be worth the price of admission as J. Cole has proven a masterful curator. Look no further than Dreamville Fest 2023, when headliner Drake brought out a plethora of special guests and performers like Burna Boy, Summer Walker impressed.
Dreamville Festival 2024 will take place on April 6 and 7. Get more info here.
All of which is to say, who knows what Dreamville bosses J. Cole and Ibrahim “Ib” Hamad have in store for the 2024 Dreamville Festival, but we at least know when and where it will return to Raleigh, North Carolina: April 6 and 7, 2024.
According to a press release, “An early-bird ticket sale for the general public” is scheduled for Friday, November 10, but the 2024 pre-sale begins on Tuesday, November 7, at 10 a.m. EST “for fans who are newsletter subscribers.” Dreamville additionally posted instructions to Instagram this morning (November 6), writing, “Text DREAMVILLE to 68624 and be the first to get your presale password. Public on sale starts Friday at 10am ET at Dreamvillefest.com Disclaimer: fees are included in this year’s ticket pricing, so you’ll be able to see the full amount up front! (before taxes, if applicable)”
If you visit the official Dreamville Festival website, you’re immediately prompted to sign up for festival updates. Ticketing information is also provided, including details about two general admission packages, three VIP packages — JV, Varsity, and MVP — and hotel options. Chase cardholders “will have early access to GA, GA+, and all VIP-tiered tickets” beginning on Wednesday, November 8, at 10 a.m. EST.

Jung Kook – November 6
The K-pop star recently released his debut solo album Golden on Big Hit as his usual band, BTS, remains on hiatus thanks to its older members’ mandatory military service. The album features the singles “3D,” “Seven,” and “Standing Next To You,” any of which would make for strong performances.
Marren Morris – November 7
The Texan country singer is a little under two months removed from the release of her newest project, The Bridge, which features “The Tree.” She’ll be joined by fellow country breakouts Mickey Guyton and Brittney Spencer.
Black Pumas – November 8
The psych-soul band dropped their second studio album, Chronicles Of A Diamond, on October 27, supported by the single “More Than A Love Song.”
AJR – November 9
The brother band is promoting their upcoming fifth studio album, The Maybe Man, which drops this Friday, November 10. They’ve released a slew of singles, including “I Won’t,” “The DJ Is Crying for Help,” “The Dumb Song,” and “Yes I’m a Mess”
Rick Ross & Meek Mill – November 10
RUH! For the first MMG release under the label’s new partnership with Gamma will be the joint album between the label’s head Rick Ross and his longtime protege, Meek Mill. Too Good To Be True is out on November 10.

When Zack Snyder said he was building a cinematic universe on Netflix, he wasn’t kidding around. According to a new interview, Snyder has revealed that his upcoming sci-fi epic, Rebel Moon, is surprisingly set in the same universe as his 2021 zombie thriller, Army of the Dead.
We say surprising because Army of the Dead is set in Las Vegas while Rebel Moon takes place in a fictional galaxy way the heck out in space. The two couldn’t be further apart, but Snyder has opened up about how the films are connected even though that link would have been shown in an animated series that never got completed.
“Army of the Dead has a pretty vast mythology that never made it into the movie. There’s actually a character from Rebel Moon in the Army of the Dead animated series that we never did,” Snyder told Total Film. That series was called Army of the Dead: Lost Vegas, but it never saw the light of day. However, if it did, there would have been a visible connection to Snyder’s upcoming sci-fi film.
“At one point in the show, they go through a portal into another dimension, and there are characters in that other dimension that they come across,” Snyder said, “In Rebel Moon, they’re in this bar, and one of the aliens is one of the characters from the animatic. So it’s definitely a shared universe.”
Here’s the official synopsis for Rebel Moon:
When a peaceful colony on the edge of a galaxy finds itself threatened by the armies of a tyrannical ruling force, Kora (Sofia Boutella), a mysterious stranger living among the villagers, becomes their best hope for survival. Tasked with finding trained fighters who will unite with her in making an impossible stand against the Mother World, Kora assembles a small band of warriors — outsiders, insurgents, peasants and orphans of war from different worlds who share a common need for redemption and revenge.
As the shadow of an entire Realm bears down on the unlikeliest of moons, a battle over the fate of a galaxy is waged, and in the process, a new army of heroes is formed.
Rebel Moon: Part One – A Child of Fire premieres December 22 on Netflix.
The Toronto Raptors pulled off a massive comeback on Sunday evening in San Antonio, as they erased a 22-point deficit to force overtime and, ultimately, pull away to a 123-116 win in the extra period.
Scottie Barnes led the way in the comeback with 30 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 assists, with most of his production coming in the second half as he took over. Helping the cause were Dennis Schroder and OG Anunoby, who each had 24 points to help lift the Raptors to a needed win on the road. Anunoby could’ve had 29 points if not for a pair of outrageous blocks from Spurs star rookie Victor Wembanyama, who had five blocks total on the night (along with 20 points and nine rebounds).
The first Wemby block on OG came on a drive to the rim where Anunoby thought he’d pushed the young Frenchman far enough on the other side of the basket to use the rim as protection — he had not (12 second mark of the first vid below) — and the second was one of the hilarious closeout blocks Wembanyama has already become known for on three-pointers, blocking a corner three that was well off the fingertips of Anunoby when he got to it.
Because Toronto got the win, Anunoby was in good spirits about those blocks after the game and had a very funny response when asked about them, as he was unable to really explain what happened other than saying Wembanyama is just “too tall.”
This is the general sentiment of most people, and specifically the fact that Wembanyama is 7’4 with crazy long arms and moves as well as he does. That’s the thing that separates him from any other players that have come into the league at that height. Kevin Garnett, who is all in on the young star, has noted that it used to be guys that size moved “like oak trees” but Wemby moves like a guard with his fluidity, and it makes his length even more terrifying to deal with.
Anunoby is not the first and will certainly not be the last to learn that Victor is “too tall” this season, and Wembanyama’s reputation as a shot blocker already has grown to have the respect of everyone that plays against him.
Dua Lipa will drop her highly anticipated single “Houdini” on Thursday, November 9, and while Harry Houdini is a famed escape artist, Lipa’s most loyal fans are hoping to be chosen for the ultimate act of escapism. On Monday morning, November 6, Lipa announced “three surprise launch events for ‘Houdini’ in London, Los Angeles, and Tokyo” across her social media accounts.
“The first one’s going to be in my hometown, London, this Thursday!!! [three anatomical heart emojis]” Lipa wrote. “I’m going to be inviting down some of my fans from the UK and around Europe, so keep your eyes peeled [lock-and-key emoji].”
The launch events are billed as “Catch Me Or I Go…” Lipa’s Los Angeles launch event is scheduled for Tuesday, November 14, followed by Tokyo on Monday, November 20.

“The next record will still be pop, she says, lest her ‘fans have a meltdown.’ She doesn’t want to ‘alienate’ them, although she’s developing a new sound that may be informed less by the house and disco beats beneath songs like ‘Physical’ and ‘Hallucinate’ than by 1970s-era psychedelia. She’s working with a smaller group of songwriting collaborators, supposedly including Kevin Parker of the Australian psych-rock band Tame Impala, a rumor she all but confirms by denying: ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about,’ she says, then looks away and laughs a little. Lipa’s dressed — almost studiously — in pop star-off-duty drag: Ugg slip-ons, baggy white jeans, an old Elton John T-shirt, a few diamond-encrusted hoops in each ear.”
In early October, the three-time Grammy winner appeared to officially commence her “DL3” rollout by wiping all of her social media feeds and updating her profile icon and header images, and “Houdini” was unveiled just days ago.

Below are the musical guests scheduled for Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week (November 6 to 10).
Jordan Davis — Monday, November 6
While the guests are Magic Johnson and Chef José Andrés, Jordan Davis will musically kick the week off — setting the stage for his performance at the 57th annual CMA Awards on Wednesday, November 8. The country artist’s “Next Thing You Know” is nominated three times: Single Of The Year, Song Of The Year, and Music Video Of The Year (as noted by Billboard).
Saint Harison will play his first of four sold-out US dates on Wednesday, November 8, but first, he’s hitting the Jimmy Kimmel Live! stage on Tuesday, November 7.
Luke Grimes, Jelly Roll — Wednesday, November 8
Luke Grimes will sit on the couch with Kimmel as well as serve as a musical guest alongside Jelly Roll for Wednesday’s (November 8) show. Grimes might be best known for his starring role on Yellowstone, but he released his debut EP, Pain Pills Or Pews — produced by Dave Cobb — on October 20. And yeah, Jelly Roll is coming back for Jimmy Kimmel Live! seconds, as we already mentioned.
Formula 1 star Daniel Ricciardo will chat with Kimmel, and Lauren Daigle will perform. The contemporary Christian singer-songwriter and two-time Grammy winner released her self-titled album in September.
Travis Scott’s two weeks into his Utopia: Circus Maximus Tour and on his way to Seattle after playing Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium in Inglewood over the weekend. During the show, he was joined onstage by a very special guest: his daughter Stormi, who clutched his hand while joining him on one of his stage’s massive asteroids as it floated over the audience and he performed “Mafia” from his new album. Say what you want about his past reckless performances, but he certainly seems like a conscientious parent here, with Stormi’s ears protected by noise-dampening headphones.
Now that Travis has dropped his long-awaited comeback album and its accompanying tour, he appears to be a hotly-demanded feature artist yet again, joining Offset on his single “Say My Grace” and teaming up with Kid Cudi and Pharrell for “At The Party.”

With the win, they improved to 8-1 on the season, giving themselves ample cushion on the 5-3 Cowboys in the NFC East and moving 1.5 games ahead of the 6-2 Lions for the 1-seed in the conference. While the Eagles offense wasn’t consistently dominant all game, they were simply better at cashing in on chances than Dallas was on Sunday afternoon, scoring four touchdowns on their four best scoring opportunities.
The last of those was a touchdown pass from Jalen Hurts to A.J. Brown on an RPO that put Philly up 28-17 at the time and proved to be the difference in the game. The play was nice and it continued Brown’s torrid pace of late, but what caught the eye of many was the celebration between Brown and DeVonta Smith in the end zone.
6th TD of the season for A.J. Brown! @Eagles take a 28-17 lead.
Smith and Brown decided to recreate the iconic photo of Dwyane Wade tossing up an alley-oop to LeBron James and running out of the frame with his arms out wide.
The proof? Well, McRae’s Are We Flying Tour found her performing at The Rooftop At Pier 17 in New York City, and her newly announced Think Later Tour will place her back in New York City on August 22, 2024, except the second time around, she’ll perform at Madison Square Garden. Not to mention, in September, she dropped her “Greedy” single, which promptly peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Global 200 and No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100.
On Monday, November 6, McRae simultaneously announced her 53-date international Think Later Tour and Think Later, her sophomore album due out on December 8. The album was executive produced by Ryan Tedder, pop hitmaker extraordinaire, and will receive the ultimate promo when McRae makes her Saturday Night Live debut on November 18. (Oh, no big deal, just a third massive announcement to casually drop on a Monday morning.) The November 18 SNL episode will be hosted by Jason Momoa with McRae as the musical guest.
McRae’s Think Later Tour is scheduled to begin on April 17, 2024, in Dublin, Ireland and will snake through Europe throughout April and May before landing in Calgary, Alberta, Canada — McRae’s hometown — on July 5, 2024, to kickstart her North American leg. The massive tour will wrap in Wellington, New Zealand on November 21, 2024. Charlieonnafriday will be the supporting act across Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK, while Presley Regier is the North American opener.
North American ticket sales will begin on Tuesday, November 7, with an American Express pre-sale. European and UK fans can earn access to the pre-sale by pre-ordering Think Later. That pre-sale is scheduled for Wednesday, November 8, at 10 a.m. local time. General sales for North America, Europe, and the UK are set for Friday, November 10, beginning at 10 a.m. local time.
As for Australia and New Zealand, pre-ordering Think Later is also the way to go for a chance at the pre-sale scheduled for Monday, November 13, at 9 a.m. local time. The Australian and New Zealand general sale is scheduled for Tuesday, November 14, at 3 p.m. local time.
