A weekend to remember is on the way. Friday, September 17, through Saturday, October 1, the ‘Universal Beauty and Health Expo’ (UBH Expo) will take center stage in Nashville, Tenn. The ‘I Am Royalty Extravaganza and Award Show’ will be featured at the Rocketown and Sixth Avenue Skatepark venue, located at 601 4th Avenue South, Nashville, Tenn. 37203.

Queen Brooklyn Tankard is presenting this unique endeavor. Queen Brooklyn is a multi-talented entrepreneur, proud mother of daughter Diamond, and television star on Bravo TV’s hit show Thicker than Water. The ‘I am Royalty’ campaign will feature two power packed days of fun, education, empowerment and networking with some of the beauty and entertainment industry’s finest professionals.

Add 20 or more celebrity guests to the lineup, great live music, food give-a-ways, expert panelists, invaluable classes—and the roster is complete. Well not really, it’s the countless connoisseurs and attendees that promise to make this noted expo one to be remembered well after the event is over.

“The UBH Expo may seem like previous conferences and Expos of its kind, but it’s not. It is individually branded for greatness. Talking about standing out from a crowd, Queen Brooklyn comes from a remarkable family (Ben and Jewel Tankard) and her siblings. They all have made a name for themselves as leaders and entrepreneurs.

One of the must see evening events of the Expo is the ‘I Am Royalty Extravaganza and Award Show’ at 6:30 pm on Saturday, October 1. The exclusive over-the-top musical will feature fantasy hair and makeup, along with flying acrobatic dancers, live animals and new music from Queen Brooklyn’s upcoming visual album also titled I am Royalty.

A portion of the proceeds from the Extravaganza and Award Show will be donated to the ‘I Am Royalty’ campaign, which supports underprivileged youth and mothers in need.
“I am so thrilled to present the Universal Beauty and Health Expo and to perform in the ‘I Am Royalty Extravaganza and Award Show,’ said UBH Expo CEO Queen Brooklyn.

The extravaganza will use music and diverse artistry to tell an empowering story about a girl that overcomes abuse, low self-esteem, teen pregnancy and a dark path of destruction to find the courage to love herself and live her dreams.

Another must see evening event is the ‘I am Royalty Family Fun Night’ on Friday, September 30, at 6:30 pm. This event is perfect for the entire family to come out and enjoy live music, comedy, and dance performances, a kids’ fashion show and a silent art auction for charity. This community event offer affordable, discount admission cost for kids 11 to 17 years old and student discounts too. Children ages 10 and under are admitted free.

Additional celebrities joining the Universal Beauty & Health Expo 2016 will include Bravo TV celebrities such as Queen Brooklyn’s TV family the Tankards, (Thicker than Water); Dr. Heavenly of Bravo TV’s Married to Medicine; reality star, beauty and fashion icon Dwight Eubanks; rapper, Young Dro; and Internet dancing sensations.

Queen Brooklyn Enterprises is a limited liability corporation founded in 2012, headquartered in Murfreesboro, Tenn. The organization has developed into an umbrella, which includes: The Universal Beauty and Health Expo; Queen Brooklyn Luxury Hair; Inspire Higher Music Group; Inspire Higher Music & Publishing; and Queen Brooklyn Productions, which is known for venues with innovative beauty and fashion shows featured on Bravo TV.
