Drake has announced the lineup for his third annual OVO (October’s Very Own) music festival, and joining the Young Money artist will be non-Young Money members A$AP Rocky, The Weeknd and 2 Chainz. For those who need a refresher on these new names of hip-hop, the former two broke out at this year’s Coachella, and the latter is popping up pretty much everywhere, from Nicki Minaj tracks to Justin Bieber remixes.

“Bringing together the 3rd Annual OVO Fest is such a milestone for me,” said the “Take Care” artist. “A lot has happened over the last three years—a journey that I’m so grateful for—but it’s always coming home and performing for my hometown that means the most. This year, we’re going to bring it just like we do every year-with high energy and music at its best.”

The fest will take place August 5 at the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre in Drizzy’s hometown of Toronto. Tickets go on sale June 9. Will you be flocking to Canada to see Drizzy and his pals take the stage?
