Rolling Loud

Founded in 2015 by childhood friends and Miami natives, Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif (8x Billboard Hip-Hop Power Players), Rolling Loud was built out of a flourishing South Florida hip-hop community that the pair cultivated through years of concert promotions. In a time where live hip-hop entertainment wasn't being taken seriously by the pop music machine, Rolling Loud shattered expectations from the jump – prompting them to expand at an unprecedented rate from Miami to Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Australia within 5 years and to Portugal, The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Toronto and Thailand within 10 years. The festival not only brings hip-hop to fans around the world, it is where hip-hop history is made. Rolling Loud's advancement is largely credited to its dedication to cultivating community in every market it touches, paving an opportunity for it to be revered as more than just a festival – it's a lifestyle brand. With a booming fashion and merchandising business that outsells some of the biggest artists in the world, a thriving media and production arm that creates content for other world-renown brands, and an unprecedented web3 model that integrates experience with digital ownership, Rolling Loud has built a 360º brand that fans, brands, and artists alike respect for its ingenuity and authenticity. Rolling Loud is the World's Largest Hip-Hop Festival.
