Lil Wayne plans to make up for the botched Hot Boys reunion in July with an official comeback performance this fall.

On Tuesday (Sept. 3), it was announced that the legendary New Orleans rap group, composed of Weezy, Turk, B.G., and Juvenile, will headline the next installment of the Lil WeezyAna Fest. Taking place at NOLA's Smoothie King Center on Nov. 2, also on the bill are Rob49 and DJ-producer Mannie Fresh.

With additional artists and activations scheduled to be announced in the coming weeks, artist presale tickets for Lil WeezyAna Fest 2024 are available now, while general admission on sale will begin on Friday, Sept. 6.

The performance could finally mark the return of all four Hot Boys members on one stage, as the group was slated to perform at Essence Festival in July. But plans soured when Lil Wayne and Turk were absent from the show, leaving Birdman, Mannie, B.G., and Juvenile to perform during a 20-minute set.

Just two months before, Juvenile shared on Instagram Live that a fourth Hot Boys album was in the works, while Weezy denied knowing anything about it while appearing on the Not Just Football podcast.

"I ain't even been to the kitchen yet," Wayne said around the 19-minute mark of the video below.

Here's hoping that the Hot Boys can be on the same page during WeezyAna Fest 2024.
