Founded in 2013 by Darius "Czar" Johnson on the principles of love, peace, unity, and having fun, Hip-Hop Family Day has never wavered from its mission to offer a free, family-friendly hip-hop music festival, without alcohol or cursing, on Columbia’s Main Street. With festival attendance growing steadily from 3,900 in 2013 to 18,000+, Hip Hop Family Day has not only grown exponentially, but has also made a lasting impact on families of all demographics who return year after year for an unforgettable celebration of music, art, and dance.​
