To accomplish this, Broccoli City collaborated with Diageo and its brands CÎROC Vodka Spritz, DeLeón Tequila and Crown Royal. Jermon Williams, one of the festival’s co-founders, spoke with BlavityU about why it’s essential for the festival’s founders to offer a wide variety of events, how they decide on their lineup of performances and what they hope to accomplish as the festival evolves and more.
