Broccoli City Festival increases star studded line-up

What is Broccoli City? I asked myself the same question after seeing it on my timeline so naturally I was inclined to do research and I must say the results were astonishing.

Broccoli City Lifestyle Group is a social enterprise whose mission is to develop and implement innovative strategies for creating healthy and environmentally sustainable communities.

The highly anticipated 3rd annual Broccoli City Festival (BC Fest) will be held April 25 at Gateway D.C. from noon to 9 p.m. BC Fest is packed with cool activations including fresh food demos led by Whole Foods Market, a pop-up market featuring eco-friendly vendors, fully stocked bars, live art installations, fitness, a full-service organic juice bar, an acupuncture and massage center, and food trucks offering the city's best mobile cuisines. Grammy award winning superstar Erykah Badu will headline the festival, which includes performances from big name acts like Joey Bada$$, Kaytranada, Tink, Tiara Thomas, Kali Uchis and more.

Today Broccoli City announced that the multi-talented stars Willow and Jaden Smith – daughter and son of Will and Jada Pinkett Smith – will be joining the 2015 Broccoli City Festival line-up on Saturday, April 25th.

“We’re super excited about Willow and Jaden joining such an incredible line-up of renowned artists performing at this year’s BC Fest,” said Broccoli City co-founder Brandon McEachern. “As we promise to do each and every year, BC Fest delivers a one-of-a-kind cultural experience that bridges the divide between environmental and urban communities.”

Since debuting in 2013, BC Fest has continued a tradition of bringing together policy makers, business leaders, acclaimed musicians and community stakeholders to highlight solutions to environmental challenges.
