What started as a simple stretch of a rhyme has grown far beyond T-Pain’s wildest dreams, as the fourth annual Wiscansin Fest announced its lineup for this June. It's also bigger than ever before.

This year’s event is a two-day affair set to take over not only The Rave, but also Wisconsin State Fair Park. On Friday, June 13th, T-Pain and Nappy Boy Entertainment will host the first-ever Wiscansin State Fear event at the Milwaukee Mile race track. The night is set to feature drifting cars, carnival rides and games, food trucks, and much more. That’s only the first half of the weekend, which will also feature a karaoke afterparty and even more events to be announced soon. Interested drivers can sign up to drift at the Nappy Boy Automotive website.

The actual Wiscansin Fest will take place on Saturday, June 14th, with a majority of the lineup being announced on Thursday via T-Pain’s social media as well. 17 acts in total will take the stages of The Rave and the Eagles Ballroom, including heavy hitters Keisha Cole, Pusha T, Wale, Jermaine Dupri, NLE Choppa and Kash Doll. The lineup will also include Milwaukee’s own NilexNile and DJay Mando, as well as DJ set from DJ Diesel, aka Shaquille O’Neal. If you’re keeping score at home, this is the second DJ Diesel show in Milwaukee announced this week. More acts are yet to be revealed.

Single-day tickets and 2-day bundles will be available on Friday morning via The Rave website. There are also VIP ticket packages available, which feature meet and greets with T-Pain, as well as an Ultimate VIP package that allows you to play retro video games with the rapper, singer, and streaming personality.
