Hosted by MC DStroy and featuring DJ Evil Dee in the mix, the event is set to rock the block.
Beyond music, the Block Party offers various activities and attractions. Spanning several blocks, the festival features curated NYC food vendors, artist and merchant vendors, street art merchandise, original artwork, and prints. Visitors can enjoy giveaways, product sampling, and the opportunity to meet some of their favorite street artists and graffiti writers from around the world. As Joe always ensures, the event emphasizes community engagement and celebration, drawing thousands of visitors each year who come to experience the ever-evolving cultural scene of Bushwick.
