PERFORMERS
Performance applications are now open.
Our team listens to every submission as we curate a lineup that represents hip-hop in its truest form. From rising local talent to established artists from across the country, we are building a festival that celebrates the full spectrum of hip-hop culture.
If you think your sound belongs on the 2x2 stage, we want to hear it.
Graffiti Artists
Live art has always been a core part of 2x2.
We are looking for talented graffiti writers to help transform the festival grounds into a living canvas. Selected artists will be invited to paint throughout the event and contribute to the visual identity of the festival.

Vendors
Bring your brand to the festival.
We are accepting a limited number of vendors selling apparel, art, accessories, collectibles, and other creative products that align with hip-hop culture and street lifestyle.
Vendor Details:
$50 vending fee
10x10 booth space

Space is limited. Our team puts just as much effort into curating our vendor lineup as we do with our performers and artists. We will review all submissions and follow up to confirm your vendor space.
Breaking Battles
Breakers from across the region will compete throughout the day in a School vs. School kids/teacher battle and a 2v2 (all ages) battle.
If you’re interested in signing up for the School vs. School battle, please email info@2x2fest.com.
If you want to be part of the 2v2 breaking battle, signups will happen at the festival and cost $10 per breaker to compete.
Car Showcase
The car show is curated and hosted by Vaded Street Circuit.
To register your vehicle or learn more about the car showcase, visit the official Vaded registration page.
Sponsorship Opportunities
2x2 x Vaded offers unique opportunities for brands to connect with a passionate and culture-driven audience.
Our sponsorships focus on experiential activations that allow brands to become part of the festival rather than just placing a logo on signage.
If you are interested in partnering with us, we would love to start the conversation.
