Super producer Pharrell has announced the return of his Something in the Water Festival. The three-day event, presented by Walmart, will take place at Ocean Front in Virginia Beach, Virginia, from April 28-30. It marks the first time Walmart supports as a sponsor.
“Strengthening local communities is core to Walmart’s DNA,” said Cedric Clark, executive vice president, store operations for Walmart U.S. “By investing in our associates and in the communities we serve, we help build a foundation where people can live their full potential every day. We’re excited to team up with Something in the Water, returning to a special place to Walmart, Virginia’s Hampton Roads, to help celebrate and empower this community we’re so proud to be a part of.”
The Something in the Water Festival lineup includes new and established R&B/soul artists such as SWV, Jazmine Sullivan, Summer Walker, Kehlani, Masego, FLO, Kamasi Washington, UMI, Kaytranada, and much more.

As mentioned in press materials, Pharrell will play the festival with a set including some special guests. Also, expect Grace Jones, Clipse, Lil Wayne, Wu-Tang Clan, and many others to bring the heat with songs from their career-spanning discographies.
Music isn’t all Pharrell’s Something in the Water Festival has to offer. The outdoor festival also will include art and culture experiences.
Ticket prices for the three-day festival ran from $195 to $399. The latter tier type is still available, while the other four are sold out. VIP admissions are sold out as well. Get more ticket information on somethinginthewater.com.
For those unable to attend, the Something in the Water Festival will stream live on Pharrell’s official YouTube page. Bulldog Digital Media (BDM) will power the live stream.
Last year, the Something in the Water Festival was hosted in Washington, D.C., during Juneteenth weekend. Usher, Ashanti (with Ja Rule), Chloe x Halle, Lucky Daye and more made up the bill.
