Join us in the heart of Phoenix’s historic Eastlake Park neighborhood for a vibrant Juneteenth celebration honoring freedom, culture, and community! Enjoy live music from local Black artists, all-day vibes from DJ Pootiecat, refreshing canned cognac cocktails from Siptale, the 1st Annual AZ Chicken Wing Showdown and more! Support local with food trucks and small business vendors offering up everything from delicious bites to handcrafted goods.
This family-friendly event features a full day of programming for all ages—think fun games, interactive exhibits celebrating Black history and culture, a petting area with horses, and tons of activities just for kids.
As evening falls, Centered PHX will take over with Freedom Music: A Soundtrack of Liberation - a powerful Juneteenth performance you won’t want to miss. This ain’t your average storytelling night—this is a revival! A liberation soundtrack. A praise break for the people.
Join us as we gather in community to celebrate Juneteenth through the power of gospel music—not just as sound, but as our story.
Imagine this:
Live music and performers singing the songs that carried us through slavery, the Great Migration, the Civil Rights Movement, and right into today’s fight for freedom.
Each harmony? A testimony.
Each verse? A chapter in our journey.
Each genre—from spirituals to hip-hop gospel—reminds us that Black folks have always used music to move mountains and make a way.
Curated and hosted by Muse, this evening unfolds like a sacred mixtape with personal storytelling, community reflection, and soul-stirring vocals from amazing voices in the Greater Phoenix community!
Expect:
Live musical performances across genres
Storytelling between songs that connect the music to our roots
A praise break like no other
Communal joy, spirit, and freedom
Come celebrate freedom, community, and joy—this Juneteenth at Eastlake Park!
The official programming lineup will be announced soon.
