1st Street Block Party

1st Street Block Party

OVERVIEW

The 1st Street Block Party is an annual celebration of art, culture and community. In partnership with key community organizations, we have built a grassroots event that brings together years of experience in entertainment, art, fashion design, brewing and distilling to create a unique and immersive experience for festival goers. Our goal is to platform Albuquerque's brightest creatives and to inspire all New Mexicans to THINK BIG. We know first hand that this requires broad community collaboration and musical talent connects us with current culture. We’re living in a hyper-connected world, and we’re leaning in. By pairing top national headliners with a crowd that’s truly part of the performance, we take it from a lively summer block party to a shared cultural moment. From our partners to our front-row fans, everyone here is a co-creator of the experience.
