To celebrate its 20th birthday, Hot 107.9 is going big – very big.

The weekend of June 19-21 will blast four concerts over three days to commemorate the station, including a throwback to its first Birthday Bash in 1996 - the station signed on in 1995 - at Variety Playhouse (the headliner at that one? Notorious B.I.G.).

UPDATE: 4/17/15: Hot 107.9 announced the first round of artists, including Future, Ludacris and Wale. Details here.

No acts have been announced yet for any of the shows, but if you want to mark your calendars, here is the rundown for the Birthday Bash 20 Weekend. Tickets are available now at www.birthdaybash20.com and via all Ticketmaster outlets, www.ticketmaster.com and the box offices of the respective venues.
