Event Description

The fall is about to be really lit!!!  We taking Afrobeats to the streets of the nations capital. Get ready for a total Afrobeats takeover at this festive Afrobeats outdoor party
One of DMV's biggest sold out events and most talked about Afrobeats event in 2019, the block party was simply a spectacle and certainly an experience you cannot afford to miss this year!! Checkout the video for a taste of what went down at the last event in 2019!!! 
Get ready for a festive vibe and a cultural shock experience on the streets of DC that combines jollof cook-off experience with live day party, popup shop, food vendors, visual art from various African cultures in an immersive fun packed cultural experience that puts the vibrancy and diversity of African cultures on full display
Jollof Cook-Off
Which country has the best Jollof? Is it Ghana? Nigeria? Senegal? Sierra Leone? Gambia? Liberia? etc. The jollof rivalry between these West African countries is no secret and if you have a West African friend chances are you have had a jollof treat dished up with a hefty serving of smack talk. But is this never-ending culinary fistcuff over taste or is it shear display of patroitism and national pride? Lets determine once again, which country has the best Jollof at the DC Afrobeats Block Party . You can participate and find out for yourself. 
Get your tickets now. Its going down outdoors in the large patio of Karma DC on Saturday September 25th featuring an incredible lineup of star DJs. 
Age Limit: 21 and over
