The countdown to BLVCKTOBERFEST deserves a soundtrack.
We’ve curated a playlist for y’all to get ready with, pregame to, and play on your way to the Onyx Ball. And when the night is over? Keep it in rotation.
Curated by The Sofenomenal Agency Group’s BLVCKTOBERFEST team, our host, and our event DJs, this playlist brings a little of Sunday’s energy to you right now.
Press play. Turn it up. We’ll see y’all at the Ball!
Inspired by the onyx stone, this year’s celebration represents strength, protection, grounding, elegance, and transformation. Onyx is bold without needing to be loud. It is timeless, refined, and powerful. It carries depth, mystery, and presence. In the same spirit, The Onyx Ball is designed to honor ten years of building, celebrating, and protecting a cultural space that has become sacred to so many.
This year, BLVCKTOBERFEST will carry the same energy that the community knows and loves, but with an elevated look, feel, and experience. The Onyx Ball will bring together the pulse of the culture with the polish of a black-tie celebration, creating a night where legacy meets luxury and where the community is invited to show up in full excellence.
The Official 2026 OnyX Magazine
This year’s BLVCKTOBERFEST magazine takes inspiration from the iconic JET magazine. Its small, sleek format brings back the feeling of holding a classic in your hands JET gave space to Black culture and
Black stories, and that legacy makes it a fitting inspiration as we celebrate ten years of BLVCKTOBERFEST.
