Day26 Heads to Lancaster for the African American Cultural Fair on May 30

Day26 — the five-man vocal group that took over airwaves after being formed by Diddy on MTV’s Making the Band 4 in 2007 — will headline the African American Cultural Fair on Saturday, May 30 at Reservoir Park. Showtime is 8:00 PM, and admission is free.

The group behind hits like “Got Me Going” and “Since You’ve Been Gone” is far from coasting on old glory. In August 2024, all five original members — Robert Curry, Willie Taylor, Big Mike, Que, and Brian Angel — reunited to drop Day Ones, their first studio album in 15 years. The independent release and a run of sold-out shows in 2026 have made it clear: Day26 still has it.

Opening the night are Rob Smith, DJ Dre, and Gee Got It, setting the stage before Day26 takes over at 8 PM.

The concert is the marquee moment of Lancaster’s 12th annual African American Cultural Fair & Parade, running May 26–31 at Reservoir Park, 832 E. Orange St. For more information, visit aacal.org/fair.
