The Arlington Juneteenth Celebration returns to Downtown Arlington on Saturday, June 20, 2026, as the Levitt Pavilion closes out its summer concert series with an evening of live music and community celebration.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This is the Levitt’s fifth installment of the popular festival, presented in partnership with Service 1st Initiatives, Inc. and Iota Mu Sigma Chapter of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. Admission is free.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Festivities begin at 5 p.m. with a vendor market and food trucks, offering guests a chance to shop, connect and enjoy local flavors before the ceremony and concerts get underway.<\/p>\n
Stage activities begin around 6 p.m. A Levitt Youth Spotlight performer will present the National Anthem and Black National Anthem, followed by a scholarship presentation by Phi Beta Sigma and a compelling video reflecting on the history and significance of Juneteenth.<\/p>\n
The evening\u2019s concert lineup begins at 7 p.m. with Branoofunck, known for crowd-pleasing shows, a band member with a Grammy on his shelf, and a sound rooted in classic hip hop, funk and groove that has made the group a favorite on the Deep Ellum music scene.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At 8:30 p.m., Fort Worth-based 4Ya Soul Band takes the stage with an upbeat blend of R&B, soul and the band’s signature high-energy live performance style.\u00a0<\/p>\n
