The Two-Day Millennial Focused Festival
Is Set To Launch October 20 – 21 In Brooklyn, NY
(September 25, 2019 — New York, NY)— Today, ENVSNfestival announces the official line up of main stage talent along with key partners and speakers. The event is slated to take place October 20-21 in Industry City with a focus on women empowerment. The new festival is looking to gain attention from the next generation of movers and shakers growing up in the tristate area. The festival is slated to be the premiere event of the year that combines features from this past season’s overflow of young millennial consumer events crossed with the hottest concert and real-talk programming all wrapped into one. ENVSN’s mission is to teach the next generation that vision is power
ENVSNfestival is kicking off the event with a diverse roster of talent from across the musical spectrum – from established superstars to up and coming acts. Main stage acts include Tinashe, Dani Leigh, Saweetie, Zhaviah and Malibu Mitch with DJ sets by Kitty Kash, Nina Sky, Coco + Breezy, DJ Lady S, Brittany Sky and more to be announced.
Commenting on the wide variety of acts, Talent Director Laura Stylez says “We made a point to listen to our demo. We sat with countless girls in our target audience to hear their wish lists of lineups and worked from there. It was really important to not only bring together the trending voices in today’s music, but really focus on a collective of women who each show confidence and can speak about their journeys that truly connect with our audience.”
ENVSNfestival founder, Sharifa Murdock adds on, “Let’s be honest, each of these girls have an important voice in today’s culture and they are the ones who the new generation is looking up to. We wanted to cultivate an audience who is inspired by the culture, longs for new experiences and willing to learn about how they can achieve their goals in life. Launching ENVSNfestival with an all-female lineup just seemed natural.”
The festival campus will span four floors within Industry City, with two floors dedicated to the panelists and workshops and another two for consumer shopping and activities in beauty, wellness and fashion, with the hottest limited-edition and customized products available to attending guests from brand partners; Urbanears, FILA, Kappa, Hudson Jeans, Shea Moisture, PHOLK Beauty, THINX, EiR NYC, Harmless Harvest + more.
While the rest of the millennial entertainment industry has been focusing on the clout of celebrity-driven speaking engagements, ENVSNfestival has been honing in on capturing a roster of real (mainly) women who have success stories of their own that are more to do with self-love and care rather than conformity and the usual beautiful, easy, route to success. Key panelist includes: Lauren Simmons – the only full-time female employee at the NYSE, Danielle Copper – LGBTQ fashion activist, Chasity Garner – Popular plus sized blogger, Gia Peppers – Entertainment Journalist, Tiffany Aliche – Award winning financial educator.
These special guest speakers will be joined by an additional 20 panelists (to be announced) to discuss topics of sex, culture, inclusivity, diversity, beauty, mental health, fashion and more. Each panel will cover hot topic subjects that will help provoke emotions and ideas that will allow the audience to begin thinking about their future and take the necessary steps to become a part of a larger, inclusive movement to shape a better, more powerful female community. Through workshops and mentor meetings, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with seasoned personalities in each of the overarching topic fields.
