FreakNik®, Atlanta’s legendary Spring Break celebration that gained popularity throughout the ’80s and ’90s, has seen a recent flurry of press surrounding an original documentary by Hulu entitled “FreakNik: The Wildest Party Never Told.” The celebrated albeit notorious event has seen a resurgence after 20 years as Atlanta-based promotional company After 9 Partners brought it back to life in 2019 as a celebration of the FreakNik® of the 90s and has continued to stoke the public’s interest through a series of community events and concerts.

And in 2022, FreakNik® Festival partnered with 21 Savage to co-produce his star-studded FreakNik® Birthday celebration, where Drake joined him to host with other notable celebrities such as Lizzo, Teyana Taylor, and political wonks Stacey Abrams and Mayor khalid in attendance.

For 2023, After 9 Partners’ FreakNik® Trademark has partnered with  MetaWorks Platforms Inc., an award-winning, full-service Web3 blockchain platform provider, and MusicFX– its NFT, wallet, and ticketing platform partner to produce a live festival as a preview to future events under the FreakNik® brand and to capture content for the forthcoming documentary.  

Created to radically improve the connection between musicians and their fans, MusicFX meshes perfectly with the positive works of FreakNik® and its fans. Attendees can expect live music, interactive artist activations, vendors, and more through its event partnerships, including GA Followers and Cassie Cope Consulting.
