On Saturday, Sept. 27, thousands will gather to run and walk in Piedmont Park to raise money for HIV/AIDS healthcare in Atlanta at the AIDS Walk and Music Festival.

Returning for its 34th year, the event will kick off with a 5K before a festival featuring live musical performances and community celebrations.

CeeLo Green will headline this year’s festival, joined by New Orleans-based entertainer Trombone Shorty. Green, known for hits like “Forget You” and “Crazy,” rose to prominence as a founding member of the Southern hip-hop group Goodie Mob. Trombone Shorty plays both trombone and trumpet as he blends rock and hip-hop with old-school funk and brass. Other featured performers include King Jai, a hip-hop artist from Birmingham, AL, and DJ Sed the Saint, a multi-genre DJ from New Orleans.
