International Indigenous Hip Hop Festival Save the Date (October 9–12)

From October 9–12, 2025, The Action Lab’s International Indigenous Hip-Hop Festival will bring Indigenous artists from across the Americas to the Bronx—hip-hop’s birthplace—for concerts, panels, youth workshops, and more. We encourage you to save the dates, spread the word, and watch artist profiles on Instagram as they go up. This festival will center Indigenous languages, cultural survival, and frontline voices as living solutions to the climate crisis—building bridges between hip-hop’s legacy and Indigenous futures. Reserve a free ticket today!

We are currently welcoming applications for vendors at the festival. We invite Indigenous, BIPOC, and local artisans, cultural workers, collectives, and community organizations to be part of the Festival Jam at Hostos Center for the Arts & Culture. Deadline to apply is September 21.
