Itâs happening: the 27th annual Capitol Hill Block Party is scheduled for July 19-20 with a notably scaled-back lineup (which honestly seems fine given the pink-and-rhinestone beating the Pike/Pine corridor took from the glorious Chappell Roan show that dominated last year's CHBP; a beating I personally loved, but I was um, having a psychedelic experience and didnât have to work there, or clean anything up afterwards!). The festival will also be 21+ for the first time, âin an effort,â the production company Daydream State says, âto optimize the festival layout, providing a better customer, fan and neighborhood experience.â
