Hiero Day, the annual hip-hop celebration hosted by East Bay crew Hieroglyphics, has announced its 2022 lineup. Performers on Sept. 5 include Keyshia Cole, Masta Ace, Kool G Rap and a special tribute to Zumbi from Zion I.

As ever, local artists are well-represented on the lineup, including LaRussell, Drew Banga, Grand Nationxl, Ian Kelly, Los Rakas, Suga T, Chuy Gomez and many others.

This year marks a grand return for the festival, which saw a pared-down version last year in Frank Ogawa Plaza. This year’s Hiero Day will return to its original, multi-block location in Oakland’s Jack London Square.

Early-bird tickets to Hiero Day are sold out, with $40 general admission tickets still available.
