Beau Fleuve Music & Arts Celebration Returns to Buffalo 

Buffalo’s Central Terminal will host the 9th Annual Beau Fleuve Music & Arts Celebration on Sunday, August 24. The event brings a full day of performances, installations, and immersive experiences to one of the city’s most historic venues. While music takes center stage, the festival also blends art, fashion, and community into a single-day showcase.

Beau Fleuve Music & Arts is a multifaceted organization that produces music, arts, and community events. Its focus is on authentic representation and cultural impact. Founded in 2017 with the Beau Fleuve Music & Arts Celebration, the organization has grown into a year-round presence in Western New York. It builds community connections through its motto, “Culturally Activated & Community Engaged,” and leads ongoing initiatives in placemaking, arts, and culture.

Event Lineup

Headlining this year is Grammy-nominated R&B artist Durand Bernarr, known for his vocal range, live charisma, and unconventional style. Joining him is Avery Wilson, a vocal powerhouse performing with Buffalo drummer Dpondrums. Grammy-winning producer and songwriter Bryan Michael Cox will also take the stage for a special “Summer Sunset” DJ set. Rounding out the lineup are DJ Quiksilva, Makenzie (with local musician Rob Bonner), and regional acts including Sauce the Artist, Merkell, Solaya, Taiste, Audi3k, and Aahhkee.

The music doesn’t stop at the main stage. A new feature this year, the River Club Tent, will offer a dedicated house music space with DJ Yes & Friends and sets from guest DJs Darand Land, Darren Diggs, Supreme, and DJ Ces.
