About Downtown Block Party
About Us
Iowa City’s biggest event of the year returns this summer! Taking over 14 blocks in Downtown Iowa City, all programming, activities, and entertainment at the event are completely free and targeted toward all ages.
Rather than selling physical tickets, the event instead sells Block Party cups that allow attendees 21 and older to purchase their drink and take it into the street to enjoy.
The Downtown Block Party will be bigger and better than ever with a Power Bungee Jump Trampoline, 9-hole mini putt course, custom t-shirt screen printing, pickleball tournaments, and an Olympic-themed fashion show.
