Named by USA Today’s “Pop Candy” as one of the “Twelve reasons to visit Seattle”, CHBP offers outstanding musical performances. In addition, the festival features resident art galleries, restaurants, clubs, and stores that help define Seattle as a cultural hub. CHBP’s reputation for bringing the best in regional and touring indie artists to the stage has drawn 10,000 people a day for sold out shows year after year. The Capitol Hill Block Party showcases over 100 of the best Northwest and national bands and DJ’s. CHBP’s low ticket price offers fans five stages over three days each summer in. Surrounded by all the great amenities you get in the middle of our beautiful city, we’re all about independent music and culture, thought, and progressive politics. We feature excellent independent craft booths, food trucks, local non-profits, introduce you to local pro-music politicians, and raise money for The Vera Project (
