Williams, a Virginia Beach native, first proposed the idea for the festival last fall. City officials hoped the festival would lead to a new start for the weekend which was marred last year when three people were shot.

“I think it’s the real answer with culturally-relevant solutions for a weekend that’s had some problems,” Virginia Beach City Councilman David Nygaard said.
