The Block Party will be held in a traditional style right in the Ebbitt's backyard on G Street NW between 14th and 15th Streets. Featuring incredible food provided by Old Ebbitt Grill, the Block Party will entertain party guests with performances by Mudcat, a high-energy Blues Musician from Atlanta, local street performers, and headlined by Bruce in the USA. Nationally known as the premier Bruce Springsteen Tribute Band, Bruce in the USA will shock the attendees with a performance recognized by Clarence Clemons himself as the 'Greatest Tribute' he has ever seen. The Party begins at 6:00 pm on Saturday, September 5th, 2009 and will continue into the night until 11:00pm. Tickets are available at $75.00 per ticket until September 5th.

porcupine Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 A portion of the proceeds from the Block Party will go towards D.C. Central Kitchen Seems really expensive to me. I guess that's D.C. for you. Maybe not. But then the press release is short of important details, like their definition of "portion". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These tickets do not include food or beverage like the $75 package that is still available. Food and beverage tickets will be available for purchase in the event. To purchase tickets or for questions and more information visit www.ebbittblockparty.com. Hope to see you there. Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtyler Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 Announcing the 2nd Annual Ebbitt Block Party on June 19, 2010 It's summer in the city and the sun's out so it's time to shut down G street and turn up the music. Join us as we push DC summertime into full swing! The 2nd Annual Ebbitt Block Party has quickly established itself as DC's premiere street festival and tastiest cookout. We will be parking ourselves on the 1400 block of G street, paving the way for hours of non stop musical performances and sparking up the grills for signature Old Ebbitt Grill food and drink! Write the date down and sunscreen up, we can't wait to see you there! We are joined again this summer by our charitable partner, the DC Central Kitchen who will again be collecting canned or commercially packaged nuts and raisins, as well as can openers. Bring something to contribute and receive a free raffle ticket for each item! For more information about menu, drinks, performances, and tickets please visit the website http://ebbittblockparty.com/ Hope to see you there!
